SBI Global Asset Management has partnered with digital asset exchange DigiFT to launch the JX token, providing institutional and accredited investors with regulated, on-chain access to a Japanese high-dividend equity strategy.
The launch marks the first time the asset manager has tokenized an equity strategy, bridging traditional asset management with digital infrastructure.
The JX token is designed to offer fractionalized exposure to a portfolio focused on high-dividend Japanese equities.
By leveraging DigiFT’s regulated platform, the product aims to lower barriers to entry for institutional capital seeking yield-oriented exposure in Japanese markets while maintaining compliance with digital asset regulations.
The move signals a growing convergence between traditional asset management firms and blockchain-based distribution channels.
This development aligns with broader trends in the tokenization of real-world assets (RWA), where institutional players are increasingly exploring blockchain technology for settlement efficiency and accessibility.
