Apex Group is providing transfer agency services to Fidelity International in support of the launch of its first tokenised product, which offers institutional and professional investors 24/7 liquidity.

The capabilities are designed for onchain markets and real-time processing environments.

The launch reflects the continued evolution of regulated asset management as tokenisation and onchain workflows are incorporated into institutional fund operating models, while maintaining established standards of governance, investor protection, and operational control.

In this context, Apex Group acted as transfer agent, supporting digital investor onboarding, wallet whitelisting, and transaction processing for the tokenised fund structure, in alignment with applicable regulatory frameworks.

Emma Pecenicic, head of digital assets distribution, Fidelity International, notes: “Tokenised fund models must meet the same standards as traditional fund structures.

“Apex Group’s transfer agency support helped extend established fund operating practices into an onchain environment, while maintaining the standards our clients and regulators expect.”

Peter Hughes, founder and CEO of Apex Group, adds: “Many funds operate on chains, yet their subscriptions and redemptions still depend on traditional, business hour processes.

“Investors gain real?time access to liquidity and continuous, automated processing. It reflects a more modern market infrastructure that is always available, transparent, and designed to reinforce trust.”
