SyntheticFi is an institutional asset management platform specialized in tokenized real-world assets (RWAs). The platform raised $13 million in Series A round led by FinTech Collective. The round also included participation from proprietary trading firms and existing digital asset investors. The company hitting this funding milestone comes as the company surpassing $2 billion in regulated assets under management (AUM) which indicates the increasing institutional interest in on-chain finance. SyntheticFi lets financial institutions, corporate treasuries, and wealth management firms access compliant, yield-generating digital assets. By tokenizing traditional instruments such as U.S. Treasury bills, commercial paper, and corporate debt, and splitting them into smaller fractions, they make them easily tradable digital tokens.

High-level institutional compliance via automated smart contracts enable the platform to provide shorter settlement times, more liquidity, and lower counterparty risks. The company plans to allocate the newly raised capital to expanding their engineering and compliance teams, strengthening regulatory workings in multiple jurisdictions, and accelerating the creation of the company’s proprietary institutional liquidity pool layer. Highlighting the significance of the achievement, Shawn Melamed, co-founder and CEO of SyntheticFi, stated: “We are at an inflection point where institutional demand for tokenized assets is moving from experimental pilots to core operational integration. Exceeding $2B in regulatory AUM is a testament to the trust our partners place in SyntheticFi’s secure, compliant infrastructure. This funding allows us to scale our platform to meet the sophisticated compliance, liquidity, and operational requirements of the world’s largest financial institutions as they transition to an on-chain future.”
