Aviva Investors and Ripple launched a tokenized share class of the Aviva Investors Sterling Liquidity Fund on the XRP Ledger on October 26, 2026. Aviva invested £50 million in the new class. The conventional Ireland-domiciled UCITS money market fund has approximately £22 billion in assets under management, but that full amount was not moved onchain.
The product uses a digital-twin model: fund holdings are represented through a digital access layer while the existing offchain fund structure remains in place. Eligible investors need digital wallets, and BNY continues to hold the fund assets as custodian. Komainu supports digital-asset custody and Licuido supplies tokenization infrastructure.
This is Aviva Investors’ second tokenized fund share class after its USD Liquidity Fund launch in July 2026. Aviva and Ripple reported more than £86 million invested across the two tokenized offerings. The sterling fund retains the conventional product’s investment objective, risk profile, daily liquidity and regulatory protections.
