SS&C Technologies has announced plans to expand offerings in tokenised funds, which the company says are “becoming another mainstream investment structure alongside mutual funds and ETFs”.
The US-based financial software provider on Wednesday said the expansion would introduce digital cash settlement for tokenised investment transactions through regulated forms of digital cash, including stablecoins and tokenised commercial bank deposits.
Designed to support future atomic settlement, the firm expects the enhancement to reduce settlement risk, improve operational efficiency and simplify cross-border investment transactions as digital markets continue to evolve.
The expansion builds on SS&C’s launch of live tokenised fund issuance and distribution capabilities earlier this year following its 2025 acquisition of Calastone, one of the world’s largest fund transaction networks.
The company said the move would allow eligible funds across the combined SS&C and Calastone ecosystem to be transacted and settled using digital forms of cash, extending the practical use of tokenised investment products.
SS&C Global Investor & Distribution Solutions’ general manager Nick Wright said the expanded infrastructure will help accelerate secure adoption of tokenised funds at scale.
“As asset managers begin supporting these products in production, they need infrastructure that evolves with them,” he said.
“Today’s announcement represents another step in helping clients make that transition, building on our live tokenized fund issuance and distribution capabilities with the digital cash settlement infrastructure needed to support the next stage of market adoption.
“Following the acquisition of Calastone, we have continued to invest in expanding these capabilities, helping clients adopt digital investments with confidence while leveraging the scale, resilience and connectivity they already rely on.”
SS&C has not provided a timeline for the availability of the new settlement capabilities, saying further details would be released as development milestones are reached.
