The pilot will grant UBS the opportunity to observe fund activities on the chain. Moreover, that observation and testing will include a host of activities, such as subscriptions and redemptions. Moreover, in an announcement, UBS stated it will use its own tokenization service, UBS tokenized, in order to launch the pilot.

“This is a key milestone in understanding the tokenization of funds, building on UBS’s expertise in tokenizing bonds and structured products,” said UBS head of asset management in Singapore and Southeast Asia, Thomas Kaegi. “Through this exploratory initiative, we will work with traditional financial institutions and fintech providers to help understand how to improve market liquidity and market access for clients.”

UBS has seemingly been at the forefront of blockchain testing and implementation. In 2022, the asset manager launched the first digital bond that is traded publicly. Moreover, their work in the space continues throughout the year. The firm has consistently sought to develop its tokenized offerings.
