Odaily News: The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) stated it will not take enforcement action if asset management firm Franklin Templeton fund managers invest cash into its Franklin OnChain U.S. Government Money Fund. The fund invests in U.S. government securities and aims to maintain a price of $1 per share. The SEC also allowed affiliated transfer agent Franklin Templeton Investor Services (FTIS) to serve as custodian for the tokenized fund and hold private keys, without needing to comply with existing physical custody rules. The arrangement includes 12 conditions, requiring Franklin Templeton to prevent unauthorized instructions and requiring FTIS to have management controls capable of correcting, freezing, migrating, or recovering records. Data shows that Franklin Templeton manages $2.5 billion in on-chain assets through its tokenized fund, ranking fifth among tokenized asset managers. The company established a dedicated crypto business unit in June and acquired crypto asset management firm 250 Digital. (Cointelegraph)
