TREE NEWS update: Amundi, in partnership with CACEIS, has launched the first tokenized share class of its AMUNDI FUNDS CASH EUR money market fund. The fund uses a hybrid distribution model allowing investors to subscribe through traditional channels or via the tokenized ‘AMUNDI FUNDS CASH EUR – J28 EUR DLT (C)’ shares. The solution runs on the public Ethereum blockchain, using distributed ledger technology to ensure transparency of share records and enhance transaction traceability.
Amundi and CACEIS Launch Tokenized Shares of Cash EUR Money Market Fund
The notable detail is the hybrid structure: the tokenized class sits alongside conventional subscription channels rather than replacing them, which signals that tokenization is being treated as an additional distribution rail for an established money market product. This matters most for the operational layer of fund distribution — transfer agents, custodians and platforms that handle share records — since Ethereum-based record-keeping touches their role directly. The open question is whether other large asset managers follow with tokenized share classes of cash funds, and whether the public-chain transparency model gains traction over permissioned alternatives.
