OpenEden, a leading platform in the tokenization of Real-World Assets (RWA), has entered into a strategic partnership with global financial giant The Bank of New York Mellon Corporation (BNY). Under this agreement, BNY will serve as the investment manager and primary custodian for OpenEden’s flagship Tokenized US Treasury Bills ($TBILL) Fund. $TBILL holds the distinction of being the world’s first tokenization product to receive an investment-grade “A” rating from Moody’s.
A New Era for the $TBILL Fund
Launched in 2023, $TBILL provides investors with direct exposure to short-term US Treasury Bills and overnight reverse repurchase agreements. These assets are brought on-chain through the minting of TBILL tokens. The product has shown strong growth momentum, reflecting the surging demand for regulated, institutional-grade on-chain cash management solutions.
BNY’s Role and Infrastructure Strength
BNY Investments Dreyfus, one of the largest liquidity managers in the industry, will act as sub-manager of the $TBILL Fund. In addition, BNY will leverage its $55.8 trillion asset management infrastructure to serve as the primary custodian, aiming to create a secure bridge between traditional finance and the digital asset ecosystem.
OpenEden CEO Jeremy Ng stated, “Our collaboration with BNY marks a critical step in our mission to deliver secure, transparent, and institution-scale tokenized financial products.” BNY’s Global Head of Investments and Wealth, Jose Minaya, added, “We are taking our role as a bridge between traditional finance and emerging technology a step further with $TBILL.”
