7th July 2023 | Hong Kong
Schroders with $887 billion AUM (Assets under Management) has announced participation in Monetary Authority of Singapore’s Project Guardian to explore tokenised assets for Variable Capital Companies (VCCs), working with Calastone to improve investment solutions for clients and provide cost-efficient investment allocation for retail & institutional investors. Schroders: “Schroders will leverage its expertise and work together with global funds network Calastone to explore the capabilities of a tokenised investment vehicle (TIV) for variable capital companies (VCCs). This innovative vehicle should allow clients to improve the personalisation of their investment solutions, while the underlying blockchain technology will potentially simplify day-to-day operational processing through increased automation and synchronised data. The collaboration between Schroders and Calastone will also explore asset ownership linked to blockchain technology that could improve the personalisation of investment products and provide more cost-efficient investment allocation for retail and institutional investors while simplifying day-to-day operational processing.” More info below.

Lily Choh, CEO, Schroders Singapore: “We are delighted to be part of MAS’ Project Guardian, working with Calastone to contribute to the advancement of the digital asset ecosystem in Singapore. Distributed Ledger Technology is an important evolution that has the potential to improve speed and transparency, achieve efficiencies, and allow personalisation of investment options in new and exciting ways. “As a regional innovation hub, we are driving this project from Singapore and look forward to collaborating with various industry players to bring this pioneering technology to market, ushering in an era of exciting possibilities.”
Marita McGinley, Head of Digital Assets Strategy, Schroders:” We are in a transformative era where distributed ledger technology (DLT) will redefine finance with a positive impact on asset management. At Schroders, we understand the vital role of tokenisation and digital assets in modern investment strategies. Tokenisation brings forth two fundamental advantages: synchronised data and heightened automation. Moreover, it expands accessibility and enables customisation, providing investors with more options. Managed in a responsible way, we think this is good for clients and for the market.”
Adam Belding, Chief Technology Officer, Calastone: “Calastone has long pioneered the use of technology in asset management to reduce friction and create better outcomes for investors. We have been working on the use of DLT as an enabler for many years, and we are very excited to work with a visionary asset manager like Schroders to enable the genuine transformation to the investment industry.”

The TIV (tokenised investment vehicle) project reflects Schroders’ commitment to exploring a broad range of technologies to support the evolving digital assets landscape.

In August 2022, the firm announced its strategic minority stake in Forteus, an asset manager focused on blockchain and digital assets, to support its ongoing education and research in this sector and to develop investment solutions for the benefit of its clients.
