digitisation
dematerialisation is a false friend and not used in English in this context.
here one speaks of digitisation projects in order to arrive at the mythical 'paperless office', which is exactly your context.

Michael, for a discussion of the dematerialisation of shares in Europe, see Santander site http://ec.europa.eu/internal_market/financial-markets/docs/c... Dematerialisation is available but not yet mandatory in the UK. Not sure about the US. Dematerialisation - Demat for short - of title deeds is becoming more common - see Welsh Land Registry press office release: http://www.landreg.gov.uk/about_us/pressoffice/notices/defau...
