Polymath, a global leader in transforming the private securities market through blockchain technology, is driving forward the creation of compliant, cross-border digital asset infrastructure. At the helm of this effort are Polymath CEO Vincent Kadar and Pakistan Country Manager and Head of Partnerships, Nabil Irfan, who are fostering meaningful dialogue to bridge the global North and South and establish a truly international digital capital markets ecosystem.
In a recent milestone for public-private collaboration, the Polymath team participated in a high-level meeting with Pakistan’s Prime Minister, Shehbaz Sharif, alongside Bilal bin Saqib, CEO of the Pakistan Crypto Council, and other key government and industry stakeholders. Kadar emphasized the importance of collaborative frameworks between governments and private enterprise to foster a sustainable crypto economy in Pakistan.
A Strategic Public-Private Meeting
Held in Islamabad in March 2025, the meeting brought together senior government officials—including the Deputy Prime Minister, Foreign Minister, Finance Minister, Minister for IT, and Minister for Economic Affairs—and executives from leading blockchain and crypto firms. Among the standout attendees was Vincent Kadar, representing Polymath’s vision for the future of tokenized finance.
Participants discussed Pakistan’s national strategy for digital asset innovation, which included a proposed $3.5 billion investment into Bitcoin mining infrastructure powered by low-cost renewable energy. This initiative aims to boost foreign exchange reserves and strengthen economic resilience. In parallel, the meeting explored launching large-scale asset tokenization projects to attract foreign direct investment and modernize capital markets.
Prime Minister Sharif tasked Bilal bin Saqib and the Pakistan Crypto Council with fast-tracking legislative frameworks to regulate crypto activities, ensuring strong compliance standards. He also encouraged deep engagement with global private sector leaders to build out the infrastructure needed to tokenize real-world assets (RWAs) across industries.
Polymath’s Role in Shaping Pakistan’s Tokenized Economy
Polymath is uniquely positioned to support these national objectives. Since 2017, the firm has helped institutions tokenize billions of dollars worth of real estate, commodities, and private securities through its white-label, institutional-grade SaaS platform.
As a compliance-first infrastructure provider, Polymath enables seamless, secure, and regulatory-aligned tokenization across jurisdictions. Its vertically integrated ecosystem supports all aspects of the digital asset lifecycle—partnering with legal firms, KYC/AML providers, custodians, broker-dealers, tax consultants, and more—to deliver a unified and compliant experience.
At the heart of Polymath’s offering is Polymesh, its purpose-built Layer-1 blockchain designed specifically for regulated assets. With native features such as identity management, compliance automation, and permissioned access, Polymesh aligns perfectly with Pakistan’s vision for a transparent and resilient tokenized economy.
The Polymath Capital Platform, built on Polymesh, offers an end-to-end suite of tools for token creation, investor onboarding, fundraising, and capital management. By offering cross-border compliance capabilities and on-chain identity verification, Polymath enables secure and efficient participation in global capital markets.
A Shared Vision for Innovation
In the words of Bilal bin Saqib:
“We invite global companies to invest in Bitcoin mining, data centers, and the tokenization of real-world assets. This is a call to innovators, investors, and infrastructure builders—Pakistan is ready to lead in the digital economy.”
Polymath has responded to this call with commitment. Under Vincent Kadar’s leadership, the firm is advancing its mission to support Pakistan in building a compliant, future-forward digital economy—one powered by collaborative innovation and institutional-grade blockchain infrastructure.
