Centrifuge Brings Tokenised Schroders Emerging Market Bond Fund to Solana via Anemoy
Key points
- Centrifuge and its affiliate Anemoy have launched a tokenised feeder fund on Solana providing access to the Schroders SISF Emerging Market Bond, a $2.3 billion Luxembourg UCITS sub-fund.
- The structure uses a BVI fund cell holding shares in the existing Schroders fund; the Luxembourg fund itself remains untokenised.
- Subscriptions and redemptions are denominated in USDC, with a $100,000 minimum investment for non-US professional investors.
- Centrifuge has applied the same feeder-fund model to Apollo and New York Life Investment Management, making it the platform's standard approach for onboarding large managers.
- Schroders, which manages more than $1 trillion in assets, was acquired by Nuveen last month, meaning this product launches during an active ownership transition.
Centrifuge has launched a tokenised feeder fund on Solana giving professional investors access to the Schroders International Selection Fund Emerging Market Bond, a Luxembourg UCITS sub-fund with $2.3 billion in assets. The vehicle is structured through Anemoy, Centrifuge’s asset management affiliate, which holds a British Virgin Islands fund cell investing into the existing Schroders fund rather than tokenising the Luxembourg fund itself. Subscriptions and redemptions settle in USDC, with a $100,000 minimum ticket size for non-US professional investors.
The wrapper model is deliberate and consistent: Centrifuge has used the same feeder approach for funds managed by Apollo and New York Life Investment Management, positioning it as the platform’s preferred route for bringing large asset managers onchain without requiring structural changes to their existing fund vehicles. The more prominent Janus Henderson partnership, by contrast, uses a different structure and currently accounts for the bulk of Centrifuge’s assets under management.
Schroders carries over $1 trillion in assets under management and was recently acquired by Nuveen, adding a layer of corporate transition context to the launch. For operators watching tokenised fund distribution rails, this product represents a live, settled arrangement rather than a pilot, and signals that the feeder-fund model is maturing into a replicable playbook for mid-to-large managers seeking onchain exposure without Luxembourg UCITS re-engineering.
