瑞銀資產管理公司推出新的投資基金 uMINT，利用以太坊的 DLT 瞄準機構投資者

根據新聞稿，該基金是一項貨幣市場投資，利用以太坊的分散式帳本技術（DLT）提供現代方式

UBS Asset Management has officially announced the launch of a new investment fund known as the UBS USD Money Market Investment Fund Token, which is notably being referred to as uMINT.

瑞銀資產管理公司 (UBS Asset Management) 正式宣布推出名為瑞銀美元貨幣市場投資基金代幣 (UBS USD Money Market Investment Fund Token) 的新投資基金，特別稱為 uMINT。

This fund is essentially a money market investment that utilizes Ethereum's distributed ledger technology (DLT) to provide a contemporary approach for institutional investors in managing their funds, as stated in a press release.

如新聞稿所述，該基金本質上是一項貨幣市場投資，利用以太坊的分散式帳本技術（DLT）為機構投資者管理其資金提供現代方法。

Highlighting the increasing interest among investors in digital financial products, Thomas Kaegi, Co-Head of UBS Asset Management for Asia-Pacific, explained the rationale behind the fund's creation.

瑞銀資產管理亞太區聯席主管 Thomas Kaegi 強調了投資者對數位金融產品日益濃厚的興趣，並解釋了該基金創建背後的理由。

"We are seeing growing demand for tokenised financial assets across asset classes. By leveraging UBS’s global capabilities and partnering with our peers and regulators, we are now able to offer this innovative solution to our clients,” Kaegi stated.

Kaegi 表示：“我們看到各種資產類別對代幣化金融資產的需求不斷增長。透過利用瑞銀的全球能力並與同行和監管機構合作，我們現在能夠為客戶提供這種創新解決方案。”

Through uMINT, investors can tap into UBS's cash management services, which are centered around secure money market instruments. These instruments are designed to cater to the conservative and low-risk needs of institutional investors seeking to preserve their funds.

透過uMINT，投資人可以利用瑞銀的現金管理服務，該服務以安全貨幣市場工具為中心。這些工具旨在滿足尋求保全資金的機構投資者的保守和低風險需求。

Furthermore, UBS plans to leverage both public and private blockchain networks to enhance its fund issuance and distribution capabilities. The uMINT fund is part of a broader initiative to expand UBS's digital services through a program called UBS Tokenize.

此外，瑞銀計劃利用公共和私人區塊鏈網路來增強其基金發行和分銷能力。 uMINT 基金是透過名為 UBS Tokenize 的計畫擴展瑞銀數位服務的更廣泛計畫的一部分。

Earlier in 2023, specifically in June, UBS had issued CNH 200 million in fully digital structured notes for a separate entity. They also achieved a significant milestone in November 2023 by completing the world's first cross-border repurchase transaction involving a digital bond, which was entirely executed on a public blockchain.

2023 年初，特別是 6 月，瑞銀為一個獨立實體發行了 2 億人民幣的全數字結構票據。他們還在 2023 年 11 月完成了全球首例涉及數位債券的跨國回購交易，實現了一個重要的里程碑，該交易完全在公共區塊鏈上執行。

In addition, UBS is engaged in a project with the Monetary Authority of Singapore known as Project Guardian. As part of this initiative, they launched a pilot program for tokenized Variable Capital Company (VCC) funds in October 2023.

此外，瑞銀也與新加坡金融管理局合作了一個名為 Project Guardian 的計畫。作為該計劃的一部分，他們於 2023 年 10 月推出了代幣化可變資本公司 (VCC) 基金試點計劃。

The uMINT fund will be made available through authorized distribution partners, enabling investors to easily access this new investment avenue. Following its acquisition of Credit Suisse early last year, the firm now boasts around $5.7 trillion in assets under management and spans over 50 countries.

uMINT 基金將透過授權分銷合作夥伴提供，使投資者能夠輕鬆獲得這一新的投資途徑。繼去年初收購瑞士信貸後，該公司目前管理約 5.7 兆美元的資產，業務遍及 50 多個國家。
