Northern Trust, a trade finance giant managing $1.4 trillion in assets, announced the launch of a tokenized money market share class for its NIF Treasury Instruments Portfolio, which invests in diversified U.S. short-term Treasury instruments. This marks its official entry into the digital asset market. The tokenized share is a blockchain-based "mirror record" of institutional-grade shares, using blockchain technology to digitize holdings registration. Initially, it will be available to clients of the LiquidityDirect platform, owned by Bank of New York.
