With current economic conditions making the hunt for alpha challenging, Asian investors are increasingly enriching their portfolios with a very liquid addition.

Following the stellar performance of his Japan Macro Fund in the early 2000s, Soon Hock Chua has opened access to his most recent hedge strategy through tokenisation on the ADDX digital securities platform.

The fund offers exposure to Southeast Asia-headquartered start-ups via the digital exchange, with commitments starting from $20,000.

Tokenisation will soon represent a $16 trillion business opportunity, the report’s authors claim. A “crypto winter” is contributing to this.

Thailand’s Krungsri Finnovate and SET Venture Holdings join the digital exchange as shareholders alongside financial institutions, Hamilton Lane and UOB.

Fullerton joins Hamilton Lane and Partners Group in tokenising funds on the platform, to tap new sources of capital.

The $100 million issuance will be the group’s first digital sustainability-linked bond and Singapore’s largest foreign currency digital bond.

The US private markets leader is offering exposure to its Global Private Assets (GPA) strategy through the Singapore-regulated digital securities platform.
