📰 Today, the MFSA published its Position Paper on the Tokenisation of Fund Units 📄 Read the paper
The paper outlines the MFSA’s approach to allowing fund units—including UCITS, AIFs, PIFs, and Notified Funds—to be issued in tokenised form on DLT infrastructure, while maintaining full regulatory oversight and investor protection.
Key highlights:
- Tokenised units are permitted across licensed and notified fund structures.
- Both native and non-native token models are acceptable.
- Governance, competence, custody, and disclosure requirements are clearly outlined.
- MiFID II rules continue to apply for tokenised instruments.
Malta continues to lead in embracing innovation in financial services, offering a clear and practical framework for digital asset adoption within regulated fund structures. This is a positive and timely step forward for the industry.
