BNP Paribas Asset Management has issued a tokenised share class of an existing French-domiciled money market fund, recorded on public blockchain infrastructure. The initiative relies on a permissioned access model on Ethereum, restricting holding and transfers to authorised participants within a regulated framework. BNP Paribas’ securities services business acted as transfer agent and fund dealing services provider, as well as operating the wallet setup and holding the private key within the scope of this controlled intra group pilot.
