J.P. Morgan's Kinexys underpins tokenised money market funds

J.P. Morgan describes Kinexys as the infrastructure behind its tokenised MMF work; BNY argues ETFs may be next.

Key points

  • J.P. Morgan published material on tokenised MMFs on Kinexys.
  • BNY wrote that tokenisation is delivering for MMFs and ETFs may follow.

J.P. Morgan's payments newsroom sets out how Kinexys, its blockchain infrastructure, supports tokenised money market funds. Separately, BNY published an insight piece arguing that tokenisation is already delivering for MMFs and that ETFs may be next.

Tokenised cash funds are useful as collateral and as a yield-bearing settlement balance, which is why banks and custodians are competing for this layer.

The Democratize view

Tokenised money funds are the beachhead. The fight is over who runs the rails.

Opinion of the Democratize editorial team.

What to watch: Collateral acceptance by CCPs.
