Securitize, a platform for tokenising real-world assets, has launched the Securitize Tokenized AAA CLO Fund, a tokenised fund designated for AAA-rated collateralised loan obligations (CLOs).
The fund has been established in partnership with BNY, with the global financial services company also acting as custodian for the fund’s underlying assets, as well as advising Securitize.
The fund has an arranged U$100 million anchor allocation from Grove, an institutional-grade credit infrastructure protocol.
Sam Paderewski, co-founder of Grove Labs, comments: “AAA CLOs offer durable, floating rate exposure that institutions understand. Tokenising that exposure improves distribution and settlement and moves our mission forward to connect institutional capital with real credit on-chain.”
Carlos Domingo, CEO and co-founder of Securitize, notes: “The AAA CLO market is under-represented in tokenisation despite being one of the most consistently performing areas of credit and an important investment segment for clients looking for yield beyond money market funds.
“This fund changes that while also marking the beginning of Securitize and BNY’s tokenised collaboration. Our mission has always been to anticipate what institutions need next — and the launch of the Securitize Tokenised AAA CLO Fund is a major step in making high-quality credit more accessible, efficient, and transparent through digital infrastructure.”
