Securitize and Neuberger Launch Tokenized High-Yield Credit Fund

The fund focuses on a portfolio of high-yield bonds, collateralized loan obligations, and leveraged loans. Neuberger serves as the subadvisor, leveraging its fixed-income platform which oversees more than $230 billion in assets. While the fund utilizes public blockchain infrastructure for tokenized interests, participation remains strictly regulated. Access is limited to accredited investors and qualified purchasers who must clear mandatory know-your-customer and anti-money laundering protocols.

Securitize Capital LLC acts as the investment adviser, with other Securitize affiliates managing distribution and administration. Carlos Domingo, CEO of Securitize, noted that the multi-chain deployment provides investors with flexible access points. Unlike cash-equivalent tokenized products, such as those recently launched by BlackRock, HINC assumes higher risk by targeting lower-rated corporate debt. Neuberger will apply its traditional research-led management process to the underlying assets, remaining distinct from the blockchain-based record-keeping duties handled by Securitize.
