Greenpro Capital Corp. proudly announces that its Digital Asset Exchange, Green-X, has been honored with a special Appreciation Award from ESG Association Malaysia (ESGAM). The recognition applauds Green-X for establishing the world’s first Shariah-compliant Carbon Credit Tokenization Platform and for its significant contributions to Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) initiatives in Malaysia.
Green-X, recognized as the world’s first Shariah-compliant ESG Digital Asset Exchange, garnered attention for its innovative approach towards providing small and medium-sized entrepreneurs access to regulated fundraising platforms. Launched in September 2022, the platform focuses on evolving financial products to promote greater financial inclusivity. A core product of Green-X is the Security Token Offering (STO), designed to assist underserved businesses in digitizing, securitizing, and tokenizing their illiquid assets for fundraising and business development.
In response to the global trend towards ESG and decarbonization, Green-X anticipates attracting international issuers to list on its Shariah-compliant ESG Digital Asset Exchange.
Mr. Cheah Kok Hoong, President of ESG Association Malaysia, commended Green-X’s contributions, stating, “We appreciate Green-X’s contribution to ESGAM for the establishment of ESG Quick Start Guide for SMEs (‘ESG101’) to help our members and SMEs in adopting ESG practices. We strongly believe that this ESG101 represents a small step forward for our Association, but a giant leap forward for ASEAN countries in embracing ESG initiatives.”
Dr. CK Lee, CEO of Greenpro, expressed the strategic role of Labuan and Malaysia in the future of carbon credit tokenization. He affirmed Green-X’s commitment to collaborate with regulators, finance, and industry partners in the ASEAN region to establish Green-X as a digital hub for carbon credit tokenization.
