The fund complies with the same regulatory standards as a mutual fund, but it differs in that it provides exposure through \u201cArCoin,\u201d an Ethereum-based digital asset security token.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The fund will normally \u201cinvest a minimum of 80 percent of assets in U.S. Treasury securities,\u201d according to Arca.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Securitize has replaced TokenSoft as the fund's transfer agent, and will be responsible for regulatory compliance demands such as investor verification, know your customer, and anti-money laundering<\/a> regulations, as well as onboarding clients and issuing the fund's shares via ArCoin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Securitize is a registered transfer agent with more than 200 clients and almost $500 million in regulated securities issued in the last three years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The fund's current outstanding balances were burnt and automatically reissued to each shareholder under Securitize's new smart contract throughout the transfer<\/a>. In addition, tokenized financial products will be jointly offered and revealed at a later date.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The announcement stated that \u201cinstitutions have struggled to meet investor demand because few tokenization companies have met the rigorous regulatory and operational thresholds required by investors,\u201d and that the firms are \u201cseeking to channel the growth of fast-developing blockchain technologies within the existing financial services regulatory framework, which we believe to be key for increased investor trust and adoption.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
