Franklin Templeton gets SEC clearance to bring tokenized assets into traditional funds

BREAKING: Franklin Templeton has reportedly received SEC clearance allowing tokenized assets to be used inside traditional investment funds.
Its blockchain-based money market fund BENJI can now be held as collateral inside ETFs and mutual funds, according to Bloomberg.
The change could take effect as early as Q4.
This creates a direct bridge between tokenized financial assets and traditional fund structures, potentially opening blockchain-based products to a much larger pool of institutional capital.
