industry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Consequently, the bank has initiated testing of a platform that operates on the Ethereum blockchain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, leveraging Project Guardian, an initiative of the Monetary Authority of Singapore, the platform offers digital services for tokenized funds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This project aims&nbsp;to explore the potential benefits of efficiency and liquidity that blockchain technology may provide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Deutsche Bank Seeks to Address Margin Pressure<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>As the market adoption of passive investment products increases, fund managers continue to experience a decrease in fee revenue.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Meanwhile, the average asset management fee decreased by 22 basis points in 2023, from 25 basis points in 2015 and an additional 26 basis points in 2010, according to a study by the Boston Consulting Group.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Project Guardian is a collaborative effort between financial institutions, policymakers, and asset managers to examine the potential uses of tokenization in the foreign exchange, fixed-income, and asset management industries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Under the direction of the <a href=\"https:\/\/coinscreed.com\/staging\/monetary-authority-of-singapore-grants-crypto-com-in-principle-license.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Monetary Authority of Singapore<\/a>, Project Guardian aims to investigate the potential efficiency and liquidity benefits that blockchain technology may provide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Moreover, Anand Rengarajan, Deutsche Bank's head of securities in Asia Pacific, commented on the matter:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>&#8220;It will help us stay relevant because, with the kind of margin compression impacting the overall financial services industry, the only way one can survive is by innovating.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>He added that the banking giant can reduce transaction times, costs, and risks by leveraging blockchain and smart contract solutions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">An Examination of Tokenized Fund Services<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Deutsche Bank is to introduce record-keeping services to help tokenized fund issuers manage investors, custody arrangements, and values.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As stated by Rengarajan, this initiative demonstrates the bank's dedication to utilizing blockchain technology to improve operational effectiveness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Interoperability is a primary focus in the platform's design, guaranteeing accessibility for fund managers irrespective of the <a
