He named four areas for action: settlement in central bank money (citing the Eurosystem’s Pontes and Appia), legal and regulatory clarity under “same activity, same risk, same regulatory outcome”, interoperable tokenised deposits led by the private sector, and tokenised bonds from European sovereign and supranational issuers that settle on Pontes. Building on a feedback statement published the previous week, he said the Central Bank will launch focused, time-bound sprints with industry and a Tokenisation Access Point for market participants.

The Ireland-domiciled UCITS money market fund uses a “digital twin” model in which holdings can be represented on-chain while the existing off-chain fund structure is maintained; Aviva has invested £50m ($66m) in the new share class, and over £86m ($116m) is invested across its two tokenised share class offerings, following a USD Liquidity Fund share class launched in July 2026. Komainu (digital asset custodian) and Licuido (tokenisation platform) supported the launch, and all assets are held by the fund’s custodian, The Bank of New York Mellon.
