Shinhan Asset Management and Plume Team Up for Tokenized Fund Pilot

Resumen

South Korea's Shinhan Asset Management has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with blockchain network Plume to develop a pilot version of a tokenized fund denominated in Korean won. The pilot will use Shinhan's ultra-short-term bond fund as the underlying asset, with BlackRock's BUIDL tokenized fund serving as a model for issuance and distribution. The project aims to test the compliance of tokenized investment products, including operations like whitelisted transfers, on-chain activities, KYC, and AML measures. Shinhan stated the pilot will explore the use of won-denominated financial products in on-chain markets, which have traditionally focused on dollar-denominated assets. This initiative follows other Shinhan Group blockchain projects, such as Shinhan Card's partnership with the Solana Foundation for stablecoin payments and Shinhan Bank's 2023 pilot for cross-border stablecoin transfers.

South Korea's Shinhan Asset Management has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with blockchain network Plume, which specializes in tokenization, to develop a demonstration version of a tokenized fund denominated in Korean won.

The pilot project will use Shinhan's ultra-short-term won-denominated bond fund as the underlying asset, with BlackRock's tokenized fund BUIDL serving as a benchmark for testing issuance and distribution, Shinhan said on Friday.

The companies will also test regulatory compliance features for tokenized investment products, including transfers only between whitelisted addresses, on-chain operations, Know Your Customer (KYC) checks, and Anti-Money Laundering (AML) measures.

Shinhan stated that the pilot will validate the use of won-denominated financial products overseas—on on-chain markets that have primarily been built around dollar-denominated assets.

In April, Shinhan Card, part of the Shinhan Financial Group, signed an MOU with the Solana Foundation to test stablecoin payments and explore the use of non-custodial wallets. Another group company, Shinhan Bank, completed a pilot for cross-border stablecoin transfers in July 2023.

Treasury Secretary's Move to Suppress Treasury Yields Ignites 'Currency Debasement Trade'! Gold Hits Three-Month High, Bitcoin Surges Over 25% in a Single Week

US Treasury Secretary Besant's efforts to lower long-term Treasury yields by announcing expanded buybacks had only a brief market impact. However, this move fueled a "currency devaluation trade," weakening the US dollar while boosting both gold (to a three-month high) and Bitcoin (up over 25% for the week). Analysts attribute this reaction to deepening market concerns over the massive US fiscal deficit and structural pressures keeping long-term rates elevated, including fierce competition for capital from global government borrowing and massive AI sector financing. Despite the Treasury's actions, fundamental forces like growth, inflation, and capital demand are seen as limiting its ability to sustainably suppress yields. Bitcoin's strong positive correlation with gold has reinforced its narrative as a hedge against devaluation. While equity markets have shown resilience, some strategists warn that Treasury yields nearing 5% increase pressure on the dollar and high-leverage assets. Figures like Ray Dalio have advised reducing bond exposure in favor of gold and some Bitcoin, citing US debt risks. Market opinions are divided on the sustainability of the devaluation trade, with some noting the lack of a near-term catalyst for its next leg higher. The underlying tension between the Treasury's desire for lower borrowing costs and the Federal Reserve's focus on inflation and reducing market intervention remains a key theme. Upcoming events like Nvidia's earnings and the Jackson Hole symposium will test whether AI profits can continue supporting stocks and if the Fed aligns more with Washington's preference for easier financial conditions.

Alexander Shokhin: Business Needs an Interest Rate Below 10% and the Dollar at 90-95 Rubles

Alexander Shokhin, head of the Russian Union of Industrialists and Entrepreneurs (RSPP), has advocated for potentially using "non-market" tools to keep the ruble within a target exchange rate corridor. This, he argues on August 21, would help avoid excessive volatility, though he called the topic a separate discussion. Shokhin had previously raised the idea of a currency corridor in late May, noting the ruble's current exchange rate is not fully market-driven due to a limited currency segment and reduced foreign currency demand. He stated that many business community colleagues propose fixing a corridor, even through non-market methods, to ensure predictability. The business community's key targets, as outlined by Shokhin in late December 2025, are a Central Bank key rate of 12%, inflation of 4–5%, and a US dollar exchange rate of 90–95 rubles by the end of 2026. A turning point for investment, he said, would be lowering the rate to 12% with 6% inflation, though truly comfortable business conditions would require a rate below 10%. He stressed the critical importance of currency predictability for corporate investment decisions. From a data analysis perspective, the idea of a ruble corridor is not new. A similar mechanism was used in Russia from 1995 to 1998, where the central bank held the dollar within fixed boundaries through regular interventions. This regime lasted three years before ending abruptly during the 1998 default, illustrating the fragility of rigid targets under external shocks. The macro-economic link is clear: stricter corridors require more reserves to defend against currency pressure. The key unresolved technical aspect is the specific sources and volume of such interventions given the current market's limited liquidity. Whether this discussion remains theoretical or leads to concrete corridor parameters will be seen in the coming months.
