Amundi, Europe’s largest asset manager, has launched a tokenized share class for its STOXX Europe 600 index fund directly on the Ethereum network, the company announced on November 5, 2026.
The new vehicle was implemented with technical infrastructure provided by asset-servicing specialist CACEIS, while subscriptions remain available through traditional distribution channels. The issuance marks a key milestone by taking institutional tokenization beyond money market funds and into pan-European equities.
According to the announcement, the global market capitalization of tokenized equities has surpassed $4.2 billion and remains heavily concentrated in U.S. assets. Amundi’s move expands institutional options in Europe, optimizing operational accessibility and accelerating settlement times through distributed ledger technology.
Amundi said it expects to expand its catalog of on-chain products aimed at institutional investors and digital platforms, consolidating the integration of traditional finance with the Web3 ecosystem.
