Ever dreamed of owning a piece of a Boeing jet or a massive cargo ship? Mitsui & Co. is about to make that a reality for everyday investors. The Japanese trading giant plans to launch the nation's first digital securities for fractional ownership of high-value physical assets.
Mitsui Digital Securities: Democratizing Institutional Assets
According to a Nikkei report on January 13, 2026, Mitsui's digital securities subsidiary is set to offer retail investors a new way to bet on the global recovery of air travel and supply chains. By utilizing blockchain technology, the firm is breaking down these multi-million dollar assets into smaller, tradeable units.
Expanding Beyond Real Estate
While digital securities in Japan have focused heavily on real estate, Mitsui & Co. is a leader in the field, already offering a diverse range of products. This move into aircraft and ships signals a significant expansion of the Real World Asset (RWA) market. Investors can earn dividends from the leasing revenue and operation of these fleets, assets that were previously reserved for major institutional players.
