France's best-performing bank launches tokenised money market fund shares using blockchain in partnership with Allfunds Blockchain and BNP Paribas' Securities Services.
The initiative involves issuing a tokenised share class of an existing Luxembourg-based money market fund, enabling near-instantaneous execution of transactions and cross-border transactions with a French counterparty.
This move aims to improve transparency, operational efficiency, and settlement speed for institutional and retail clients, building on insights gained from Eurosystem CBDC experiments.
Blockchain integration in this initiative can democratize access to money market funds, offering high liquidity and flexible access to capital with enhanced security and real-time data capabilities.
