SOLOWIN Enhances Its Tokenized Fund with Chainlink Integration, Setting New Institutional Standard for RWA Transparency

HONG KONG, Aug. 28, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- via IBN -- SOLOWIN HOLDINGS (NASDAQ: SWIN) (“Solowin” or the “Company”), a leading financial services firm providing comprehensive solutions across traditional and digital assets, today announced a landmark integration of Chainlink’s industry-standard data services into its flagship tokenized money market fund, the Real Yield Token (RYT).

Now live on both the Arbitrum and Polygon blockchains, this integration leverages Chainlink Proof of Reserve and NAVLink to provide institutional-grade, real-time on-chain verification for RYT. This collaboration reinforces Solowin’s commitment to building a trusted, compliance-first digital asset ecosystem and marks a significant step in bridging traditional finance (TradFi) and Web3.

RYT, a core product within Solowin’s asset management suite, is backed by off-chain AAA-rated assets. Through Chainlink Proof of Reserve, investors can independently verify the fund’s underlying collateralization in real time, ensuring that the token is sufficiently backed. Meanwhile, the integration of Chainlink’s NAVLink feed further guarantees that RYT’s on-chain value remains accurately and transparently aligned with the net asset value of its holdings, providing a level of auditability rarely available in the digital asset space.

As the tokenization of financial instruments gains momentum, access to secure, real-time on-chain data is critical for ensuring institutional adoption. This strategic move significantly enhances the institutional appeal of RYT by addressing the critical need for verifiable transparency in the tokenized asset market. The integration also positions Solowin at the forefront of this evolution, ready to meet the growing demand for compliant and transparent digital asset solutions.

Mr. Peter Lok, CEO of Solowin, stated, “Integrating Chainlink’s best-in-class infrastructure into our RYT product is a direct reflection of our mission to build the fundamental, trusted rails for digital finance. This provides our clients with verifiable, decentralized proof of RYT’s integrity, solidifying its position as an institutional-grade asset. For Solowin, this collaboration accelerates our strategy of delivering secure, transparent, and high-quality tokenized products to a global investor base. By adopting the gold standard for on-chain data, we are not only bolstering investor confidence in our products but also pioneering new benchmarks for the entire Real World Asset (RWA) industry.”

Chainlink is the industry-standard oracle platform bringing the capital markets on-chain and powering the majority of decentralized finance.
