World Liberty Financial to Tokenize Trump International Hotel & Resort, Maldives, in Partnership with DarGlobal and Securitize

Broader WLFI Strategy to Tokenize Real-World Assets Begins with Flagship Hospitality Development

PALM BEACH, Fla.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–World Liberty Financial (“WLFI”) has today announced plans to tokenize loan revenue interests in Trump International Hotel & Resort, Maldives, in partnership with Securitize, Inc. a leading platform for tokenizing real-world assets, and DarGlobal PLC (LSE: DAR), an international luxury real estate developer. This initial offering reflects WLFI’s broader strategy to design, structure, and distribute WLFI-branded tokenized real-world asset offerings.

Trump International Hotel & Resort, Maldives is a flagship luxury hospitality development by DarGlobal, created in collaboration with The Trump Organization, and scheduled for completion in 2030. The resort is set to feature approximately 100 ultra-luxury beach and overwater villas.

The initial tokenized offering aims to provide eligible accredited investors with both a fixed yield and loan revenue streams from a prime Maldivian hospitality asset underpinned by a globally recognized brand. Through the loan interest payments, investors will therefore gain exposure to the underlying asset’s performance, including both potential income distributions and the potential for certain profits upon any future sale, within a regulated securities framework.

“We built World Liberty Financial to open up decentralized finance to the world. With today’s announcement, we are now extending that access to tokenized real estate,” said Eric Trump, co founder of World Liberty Financial. “For the first time, eligible participants can be a part of an iconic property like Trump International Hotel & Resort, Maldives. We are excited about future endeavors as we bring more world-class assets on-chain.”

“Real estate has been one of the hardest asset classes to tokenize effectively,” said Carlos Domingo, Co-Founder and CEO of Securitize. “We believe that scalable on-chain real estate products issued with compliance, governance, and market structure in mind will be globally sought after. That’s exactly what this partnership with WLFI is designed to deliver.”

“This marks a breakthrough for real estate investment,” said Ziad El Chaar, CEO of DarGlobal. “Together, we are rethinking how qualified investors can access, trade, and ultimately gain liquidity in loan revenue interests in high-quality real estate as it is being developed.”

The tokens described herein will be offered in a private placement pursuant to Rule 506(c) of Regulation D under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and offered and sold only to verified accredited investors, or to non-US persons in an offshore transaction under Regulation S of the Securities Act. The tokens will be subject to significant restrictions on transfer and resale and have not been registered under the Securities Act or any state securities laws, and may not be offered or sold in the United States except pursuant to an available exemption from registration.

The initial offering is expected to be issued on supported public blockchains, with plans to enable access via select third-party partners and wallets, subject to applicable requirements. The parties also may support additional on-chain utilities, including the ability for eligible users to use their holdings as loan collateral through WLFI Markets, where permitted by law.
