StanChart’s Libeara buys Zodia Markets Jersey to enable intraday tokenized fund dealing

Libeara, a fund tokenization platform incubated by Standard Chartered’s SC Ventures, has announced the acquisition of Zodia Markets (Jersey) to enhance its operational capabilities. This strategic move provides Libeara with a Jersey-based investment dealing license and status as a Virtual Asset Service Provider, which are essential for streamlining fund operations. By integrating this regulated entity, Libeara aims to facilitate intraday liquidity for tokenized funds, allowing investors to enter or exit positions outside of traditional subscription and redemption windows. The platform currently manages over $810 million in assets, with the majority comprised of ChinaAMC’s tokenized fund classes and the Bosera Liquidity Income Fund. Furthermore, the acquisition enables Libeara to directly manage stablecoin on-ramping and off-ramping for fund transactions, reducing reliance on third-party partners. This development marks a significant step in maturing the infrastructure for tokenized investment products by bridging the gap between traditional regulatory compliance and blockchain-based efficiency. The transaction remains subject to pending regulatory approval.

FundBridge will oversee regulatory compliance and governance, while Ironlight manages investor eligibility and onboarding processes.

Wellington Management deepens Libeara collaboration with tokenized income fund

Wellington Management has expanded its partnership with Libeara and FundBridge Capital to launch a new tokenized fund named INCOM. This follows the success of their initial collaboration, the ULTRA fund, which currently manages approximately $70 million in short-term Treasury assets. Unlike its predecessor, INCOM offers a more diversified portfolio, incorporating investment-grade and high-yield corporate bonds, bank loans, convertibles, and securitized assets. Wellington Management serves as the sub-advisor for the fund, while FundBridge Capital acts as the manager, maintaining the operational structure established during the ULTRA launch. By leveraging public blockchain infrastructure, the initiative aims to provide institutional investors with enhanced transparency and operational efficiency. This development signifies a broader institutional shift toward utilizing distributed ledger technology to deliver complex fixed-income strategies. The move highlights the growing appetite among traditional asset managers to modernize the delivery of core investment expertise through tokenized vehicles.

StanChart backed Libeara raises $14m from GSR, Kyobo Life, others for tokenization

Libeara, a tokenization platform incubated by Standard Chartered’s SC Ventures, has successfully closed a $14 million strategic funding round led by global market maker GSR. Additional participants in this round include Openspace Capital, Kyobo Life Insurance Group, AlloyX, Kaia Investment Partners, Simsan Ventures, and Monk’s Hill Ventures. The Singapore-based firm intends to utilize these funds to accelerate the global expansion of its tokenization infrastructure.

To date, the platform has facilitated over $1 billion in tokenized assets across various fund relationships. The involvement of Kyobo Life Insurance Group highlights the growing institutional interest in tokenization, particularly within the South Korean market. This funding round underscores the increasing maturity of the RWA sector as platforms move toward direct distribution models and broader international integration.
