Asset management company Baillie Gifford, in collaboration with BNY, launched an on-chain fixed income tokenized fund, deploying on both ETH and Solana chains
According to CoinDesk, the long-established asset management company Baillie Gifford from Edinburgh, Scotland (founded over 118 years ago) announced on Monday in collaboration with global custodian giant BNY the launch of a tokenized fixed income fund—Baillie Gifford Enhanced Yield Fund (BAGEY), deployed simultaneously on the Ethereum and Solana public chains.
The fund is denominated in US dollars and operates under an open-ended investment company (OEIC) structure within the UK regulatory framework, targeting qualified investors from the UK, Switzerland, and the Cayman Islands. It offers an actively managed short-duration corporate bond portfolio, with a current yield of approximately 7%.
Unlike most tokenized products on the market, Baillie Gifford's Head of Digital Assets Theo Golden emphasized that BAGEY is not a traditional fund wrapped in a token shell, but rather a fund issued directly on-chain, with the blockchain itself serving as the rights registry, allowing investors to directly hold shares and enjoy direct recourse.
BNY will provide tokenization and wallet infrastructure for the fund, with NatWest acting as the custodian. The Global Head of Investor Solutions at BNY stated that this issuance marks the transition of tokenization from concept to real application, as regulated fund structures evolve towards a more digital and interconnected market.
