SS&C Technologies, a provider of investment and financial software services listed on Nasdaq, has unveiled plans to bring digital cash settlement to tokenized investment transactions.
Under the plans, transactions involving tokenized investments will be able to settle through regulated digital cash instruments, spanning both stablecoins and tokenized deposits held at commercial banks.
The move follows the firm’s rollout earlier this year of live capabilities for issuing and distributing tokenized funds, which came in the wake of its 2025 purchase of Calastone. Through that infrastructure, asset managers are able to launch tokenized variants of conventional investment funds via the connectivity and systems they already operate, linking traditional finance with digital markets.
With appetite for tokenized products rising, attention across the industry is shifting from tokenization itself to the underlying plumbing required for digital transactions. SS&C said the latest step extends its innovation roadmap into this next phase of the digital investment lifecycle.
Combined with its existing tokenized fund issuance and distribution offering, the enhancements will open a route for eligible funds across the joint SS&C and Calastone ecosystem to be traded and settled in digital forms of cash, broadening the real-world use of tokenized products.
SS&C Global Investor & Distribution Solutions general manager Nick Wright said, “Tokenized funds are becoming another mainstream investment structure alongside mutual funds and ETFs. As asset managers begin supporting these products in production, they need infrastructure that evolves with them.
“Today’s announcement represents another step in helping clients make that transition, building on our live tokenized fund issuance and distribution capabilities with the digital cash settlement infrastructure needed to support the next stage of market adoption. Following the acquisition of Calastone, we have continued to invest in expanding these capabilities, helping clients adopt digital investments with confidence while leveraging the scale, resilience and connectivity they already rely on.”
