Real Finance, the Layer-1 blockchain network specialising in the tokenisation of real-world assets (RWAs), has successfully mobilised a total of $29 million in private funding. The capital aims to expand the network’s infrastructure and accelerate institutional onboarding.

The funding includes a $25 million commitment from Nimbus Capital, a private alternative investment group focused on connecting emerging digital economies with institutional capital markets. An additional $4 million was raised in a private round led by Magnus Capital, with participation from Frekaz Group.

This capital reflects growing institutional confidence in Real Finance’s goal to provide transparent, regulation-ready infrastructure for the next phase of tokenised finance. The company has set an ambitious target to tokenise $500 million worth of assets in its first year, which would represent roughly two per cent of the current tokenised asset market.

Ivo Grigorov, CEO of Real Finance, commented on the significant backing: “Nimbus Capital’s support confirms that we’re building more than a standalone blockchain — we’re developing foundational infrastructure for the future of global finance. A partner with Nimbus’s institutional background backing our mission is a strong endorsement of both our approach and the long-term relevance of regulated tokenization.” He added, “Having a fund with such institutional pedigree standing behind our mission, coupled with the support of leading investor Magnus Capital, is a validation of our work to date. With their support, I’m excited for what’s to come as we enable hundreds of millions of dollars in real-world assets to flow through Real.”

The investment will be used to scale the network, deepen partnerships, and onboard regulated financial institutions preparing to bring traditional asset classes into compliant onchain ecosystems. Real Finance is advancing its regulated banking connectivity across key regions, including establishing institutional relationships with banks such as Canal Bank, S.A. in Panama and Wiener Bank SE in Austria.

The network’s architecture is specifically designed to bridge traditional financial standards with the efficiency and auditability of blockchain technology. This design is powered by a dual-validator model that integrates key business entities, including tokenisation firms, risk assessors, and insurers, directly into network consensus. This architecture, combined with an embedded risk framework and structured disaster recovery mechanisms, is intended to reinforce institutional readiness.

Robert Baker, Managing Partner at Nimbus Capital, stated: “This commitment reflects our conviction that institutional-grade tokenization is moving from exploration to implementation. Real Finance is building the secure, compliant architecture institutions require to adopt real-world assets onchain with confidence. We’re proud to support a team driving trust, transparency, and global accessibility in the next generation of financial infrastructure.” He concluded, “This investment reflects our belief in the direction finance is moving. Real Finance is creating the secure and compliant foundation institutions need to bring real-world assets on-chain. We’re delighted to be supporting a team that is bringing transparency and trust to the next generation of financial infrastructure, and we’ll be with them every step of the way.”

Real Finance is rapidly building a global ecosystem of regulated financial institutions and service providers across Europe, the Middle East, and Asia.

Valentin Dimitrov, COO of Real Finance, commented: “We’re seeing a decisive shift in institutional attitudes toward tokenization. It’s no longer viewed as experimental — it’s rapidly becoming a strategic requirement. Banks and asset managers across multiple regions are joining the Real Alliance to take part in the next stage of financial evolution.”

Matthijs Van Driel, CEO and Co-founder of Magnus Capital, added: “We’re privileged to have led Real’s private round, giving them the support they need to enhance and scale their Layer-1 solution. 2025 has shown that there’s real institutional demand for RWAs – and in 2026, we’re confident that Real Finance will be capturing a significant slice of that multi-billion dollar market.”

Kabir Gidwani, a member of the Nimbus Capital team, concluded: “Real Finance is delivering the kind of transparent, regulation-aligned, institution-focused blockchain infrastructure that global financial institutions have been waiting for. By combining compliance-grade architecture with decentralization, Real is well-positioned to become a defining force in the tokenized finance ecosystem.”
