About the role

Introduction

IBM Consulting's Digital Assets & Tokenization practice is at the forefront of helping global financial institutions tokenize securities, funds, and private market assets. We are looking for an experienced Capital Markets subject matter expert to help clients navigate the tokenization of equities, fixed income, private equity, and fund structures — bringing deep capital markets domain knowledge to engagements spanning custody, lending, and secondary market infrastructure.

Your role and responsibilities

As a Capital Markets SME within IBM Consulting's Digital Assets & Tokenization practice, you will bring deep capital markets domain expertise to client engagements involving tokenized securities, custody solutions, and lending against digital and tokenized assets. You will work directly with client stakeholders across capital markets, custody, and wealth management functions to shape solution designs, and support delivery teams as tokenization initiatives move from advisory into implementation.

  • Serve as the capital markets domain authority on client engagements involving securities tokenization, fund tokenization, and digital asset custody.
  • Advise clients on solution design for lending against tokenized equities, private equity, and other digital asset collateral
  • Partner with regulatory advisory teams on capital markets-specific regulatory considerations tied to tokenized securities and digital asset custody.
  • Contribute capital markets expertise to client proposals, points of view, and executive-level presentations to support business development.
  • Collaborate with technical architects to ensure capital markets solution designs integrate with clients' existing custody, settlement, and trading infrastructure.
  • Track the evolving competitive and regulatory landscape for tokenized securities and capital markets infrastructure, and translate that knowledge into client-ready points of view.
