SIX tokenises corporate bonds to expand investor base

249

SIX Digital Exchange (SDX) has completed its pilot project tokenising corporate debt instruments in collaboration with Banque Pictet.

Fractional quantities of the tokenised assets were allocated to Pictet Asset Management portfolios, which SIX states demonstrates the potential for such instruments to be used when customising investment strategies.

Euro and Swiss Franc-denominated corporate bonds were the focus of the programme. Held under the custody of Swiss and international central securities depository SIX SIS, they were then tokenised on the SDX platform. However, the firm states that the solution is feasible for both traditional and digitally-issued debt instruments.

Introducing fractional tokenised bonds to the mutual fund space will open up the asset class to a broader range of investors, the firm continued, granting access to a wider range of investment choices.
