Cayman SPV Structure: The Most Popular Legal Container for Global RWA Issuance
In global RWA issuance practices, the Cayman Islands SPV structure has become one of the most common issuance infrastructures. Its core value lies not in being " offshore, " but in legal neutrality, high investor acceptance, and clear asset segregation.
From a compliance perspective, the essence of a Cayman SPV is a risk isolation container and an equity-bearing entity, used to take over the underlying asset income rights and issue tokenized rights to the outside world.
