Hamilton Lane plans to give qualified U.S.-based investors access to funds providing exposure to direct equities, private credit and secondary transactions, which will be tokenized via Securitize's digital transfer agency. The aim of tokenization is to make private market investment available to a broader set of investors, and the announcement comes after KKR made a similar move.
The announcement by Hamilton Lane, which has $832.5 billion in assets under management and supervision, follows a similar move from KKR, the investment giant that announced plans last month to tokenize its Health Care Strategic Growth Fund on the Avalanche blockchain, also in partnership with Securitize.
