DBS, Franklin Templeton, Ripple launch tokenised fund trading solutions

DDEx will list FT’s sgBENJI token alongside the Ripple USD stablecoin.

DBS has partnered with asset manager Franklin Templeton and financial services company Ripple to provide new lending and trading solutions powered by tokenisation, blockchain technology, and stablecoins.

The new solutions will be powered by tokenised money market funds on the XRP ledger blockchain and stablecoins such as Ripple USD (RLUSD), according to a press release.

DBS Digital Exchange (DDEx) will list sgBENJI – the token of Franklin Templeton’s tokenised money market fund, Franklin Onchain U.S. Dollar Short-Term Money Market Fund – alongside RLUSD.

Eligible DBS clients can trade RLUSD for sgBENJI tokens, enabling them to rebalance their portfolios into a relatively stable asset 24/7 within minutes.

Meanwhile, Franklin Templeton will tokenise the sgBENJI on the XRP Ledger, a public enterprise-grade blockchain.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

If you've been wondering whether SBR could work for your company — yes, probably.

A lot of the companies we partner with started as readers. They'd been following our coverage for a while, saw their own customers and competitors in it, and eventually asked the obvious question: could we do something with you? The answer is usually yes. The shape of it depends on what you're trying to do.

The options are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. Some partners use one channel; most use a mix. We figure out the right combination by starting with your brief, not with our rate card.

So if the question has been on your mind, here's the easy way to ask it.

We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how. It's a better use of everyone's time.
