Issuances lean on a **regulatory sandbox** whose windows have been extended by successive resolutions — issuances made within the window keep their validity afterwards. ## The role of PSAVs Registered **Virtual Asset Service Providers** (Law 27,739, supervised by the CNV) are the operational piece: they market digitally represented securities and take on administration and custody of the digital environment. It is a different architecture from Spains (where the registry anchor is the [ERIR](/en/glosario/erir-entidad-de-registro-e-identificacion-registral)), but with the same logic: a regulated entity answers for the register. ## What can be tokenized, and through which vehicle The menu is broad: equity, corporate debt and — highly relevant for the country — **financial fideicomisos**, Argentinas classic securitisation vehicle, whose participation certificates now admit digital representation. That connects tokenization to the real economy: agriculture, real estate and credit. ## How we work with Argentine issuers From Spain, with the same method we apply under the CNMV: asset classification, vehicle selection, and the [seven-layer platform](/en/articulos/regulated-tokenization-platform) a serious issuance requires — registry, identity, transfer restrictions, custody. The local regulatory layer is handled with counsel in-country; the infrastructure, token standard and operations are our terrain.
