According to the latest announcement from Securitize, the company has successfully onboarded the HINC (Neuberger Securitize High Income Tokenized Fund) to Aave Horizon, marking a significant expansion of the fund's accessibility. The integration allows HINC to serve as supply-only collateral on Aave Horizon with USDC, GHO, and RLUSD borrowable against it, providing enhanced liquidity and utility for eligible investors. This development represents the first major decentralized finance integration for the tokenized fund, expanding beyond the original four blockchain distribution to include the Aave Horizon (Ethereum) platform.
According to reports from Securitize, the company has launched the Neuberger Securitize High Income Tokenized Fund (HINC), a tokenized fixed-income fund that will invest primarily in high-yield bonds alongside collateralized loan obligations and leveraged loans. The fund marks the first engagement by Neuberger Berman, a global investment manager with $230 billion in assets under management, as subadvisor to a tokenized fund. The fund will be managed by Neuberger as subadvisor in its first engagement with a tokenized fund, while Securitize Capital LLC serves as the investment adviser and Securitize Markets LLC will offer fund interests to eligible investors. Other Securitize affiliates will handle administration and operational services. As reported by Securitize, Carlos Domingo, Co-Founder and CEO of Securitize, stated that "This tokenized fund brings Neuberger's established fixed income capabilities to public blockchains."
As reported by Securitize, HINC will seek risk-adjusted returns from a portfolio of income-producing fixed-income assets, with the mandate permitting investments in high-yield bonds, collateralized loan obligations, and leveraged loans. The fund's interests will be issued across four blockchains: Avalanche, Ethereum, Solana, and Sui, giving eligible investors access through multiple networks. According to company data, Neuberger manages approximately $613 billion across equities, fixed income, private markets, real estate, and hedge fund portfolios as of June 30, 2026, with its fixed-income platform accounting for more than $230 billion of that total. As subadvisor, Neuberger brings its fixed income expertise in portfolio management and research to the strategy, extending its actively managed approach to qualified investors seeking onchain fixed-income access. Anil Abraham, Head of Product Management at Neuberger, noted that "Neuberger's fixed income platform has navigated decades of market cycles, growing into a globally integrated business built on diversified, research-intensive solutions."
According to Securitize, the company recently achieved several significant milestones, including becoming the first company to list its stock on both the New York Stock Exchange and onchain when it went public on July 2. The company also reported record first-quarter revenue of $19.5 million, up nearly 40% year over year, alongside $3.4 billion in tokenized assets under management. As of July 2026, Securitize has achieved $5B+ AUM and is recognized as a 2026 Forbes Top 50 Fintech company. Last month, Securitize gained registered investment advisor status with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, allowing it to work more closely with asset managers and institutional investors through its subsidiary Securitize Capital LLC.
According to the announcement, participation in HINC will remain restricted to eligible accredited investors and qualified purchasers who must complete Securitize's onboarding process, including know-your-customer and anti-money laundering checks. Access will also depend on an investor's jurisdiction and applicable securities laws, meaning the tokens will not be freely available to every wallet user like unrestricted cryptocurrency. As reported by Securitize, the company operates through Securitize Markets, which runs as a broker-dealer registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission and operates an alternative trading system. Investors can obtain additional information about HINC by visiting https://securitize.io/hinc. The fund carries significant risks, including elevated credit, interest rate, liquidity, and market risks relative to investment-grade fixed income, plus additional blockchain-related risks such as digital asset custody, smart contract functionality, technology failures, and an evolving legal environment. Prospective investors are urged to review the fund prospectus in detail and understand the unique risk profile of this next-generation asset class.
As reported by Securitize, the company reported more than $4 billion in assets on its tokenization platform as of April and works with asset managers including Apollo, BlackRock, BNY, Hamilton Lane, KKR, and VanEck. In July, BlackRock launched two tokenized funds holding cash, short-term U.S. government debt, and Treasury-backed repurchase agreements, with Securitize acting as transfer agent and tokenization provider. According to a NYLIM report, a comparable institutional product entered the market in July when Centrifuge and New York Life Investment Management introduced a tokenized U.S. high-yield corporate bond strategy. The new fund represents a broader effort to bring traditional fixed-income strategies onchain as tokenized asset managers seek deeper institutional participation. Securitize currently operates as the only company licensed to operate regulated digital-securities infrastructure across both the U.S. and EU through its existing regulatory authorizations. HINC signals a growing convergence between Wall Street's institutional expertise and the transparency and efficiency benefits offered by blockchain-based investing, providing a window into how established asset managers and fintech innovators are building the future of income investing.
