Legal Wrapper
A legal wrapper is the legal structure used to connect an asset or investment with the rights represented by a token. This might involve a company, SPV, trust, fund or another legal arrangement.
Why it matters to you
The blockchain records the token, but the legal wrapper helps determine what that token means in the real world. It can define ownership, investor rights, responsibilities and how claims relating to the underlying asset are handled.
