Solowin Holdings Expands Investment Offerings with CITIC Contracting Company.

Solowin Holdings, a financial services firm, has entered a Memorandum of Understanding with CITIC Contracting Company to co-develop next-generation digital infrastructure in Saudi Arabia. The collaboration aims to bridge the gap between the private real estate market and investor demand for diversified yield-generating alternatives. Solowin's technology-driven platform will be integrated with CITIC's real estate investment expertise to address the growing demand for real-world asset tokenization.

Solowin Holdings, a leading financial services firm, has entered a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with CITIC Contracting Company to co-develop next-generation digital infrastructure in Saudi Arabia. The three-year partnership aims to bridge the gap between the private real estate market and investor demand for diversified yield-generating alternatives. By integrating Solowin’s technology-driven platform with CITIC’s seasoned real estate investment expertise, the collaboration will address the rapidly growing demand for real-world asset (RWA) tokenization across the Middle East market [1].

The MOU, announced on August 20, 2025, follows Solowin’s recent Web3 finance initiatives and focuses on data science, commercial real estate, and logistics parks. The partnership aligns with Saudi Vision 2030’s digital transformation goals, which aim to diversify the economy and create a vibrant environment for investors [1].

Solowin’s CEO, Peter Lok, noted, “This partnership aligns with Saudi Vision 2030’s digital transformation goals. By combining CITIC’s on-ground execution capabilities with our regulated stablecoin infrastructure, we create a blueprint for modernizing traditional assets.” The detailed investment terms will be formalized in subsequent binding agreements [1].

CITIC Contracting Company, a subsidiary of China CITIC Group, has been ranked among the top 250 global contractors in the Engineering News-Record (ENR) list for many years. The company’s expertise in real estate investment will complement Solowin’s robust Web3 Infrastructure division, which operates a self-developed, enterprise-grade platform for traditional finance, RWA tokenization, and global digital payment solutions [1].

Tokenization, the process of converting property rights into digital assets, is expected to significantly enhance the liquidity and accessibility of real estate investments. Deloitte projects that the tokenized real estate market could soar from under $300 billion in 2024 to around $4 trillion by 2035, driven by programmable ownership rights, faster settlement speeds, and broader investor reach [2].

This collaboration between Solowin and CITIC Contracting Company is poised to revolutionize the Saudi real estate market by leveraging the power of Web3 technology and data science. The partnership will not only modernize traditional assets but also create new opportunities for investors seeking diversified yield-generating alternatives.
