Apex Malta transforms industry with launch of new tokenised fund share

MALTA, March 26, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Apex Group Ltd. (“Apex Group” or the “Group”), the leading global financial services provider, has announced it is administering a first ever tokenised share class on the Polygon blockchain from Malta - digitising traditional fund shares into security tokens. This milestone underscores Apex Malta’s commitment to leading the transformation of the country’s fund administration sector.

Tokenisation is rapidly gaining ground across asset management globally. The conversion of assets into digital tokens that are held on distributed ledgers is not just a technical upgrade, but a wide-reaching transformation for industry.

Apex Malta uses blockchain for streamlined, transparent fund administration and transfer agency. Tokenisation solves issues like slow settlement and limited access. This innovation delivers numerous benefits, including near-instantaneous transaction settlement, transparent and auditable records, broader investor accessibility through fractional ownership and enhanced operational efficiency via automation and robust security through blockchain cryptography.

Omar Cascun, Apex Group’s Country Head – Malta, said:

“We are proud to be the first financial services provider to launch a first of its kind share class from Malta. By leveraging tokenisation, we are enhancing operational efficiency as well as broadening the investor pool.

Apex Malta is committed to driving innovation in the local Malta fund industry by leveraging our extensive infrastructure and the expertise of our local, dedicated team.”
