Anemoy’s Liquid Treasury Fund Managed by Janus Henderson Becomes First Tokenized Fund Rated by Moody’s and Particula

The fund receives first ratings ever awarded to a tokenized fund from both TradFi and DeFi agencies

Anemoy, a web3 native asset manager powered by Centrifuge, announced ratings from Moody’s and Particula for their tokenized Liquid Treasury Fund managed by Janus Henderson. The fund received an Aa from Moody’s and an A+ from Particula.

Moody’s Rating of Aa

The bond fund rating reflects the high credit quality of the fund’s underlying assets, primarily U.S. Treasury Bills, and the operational oversight of Janus Henderson, a top-tier asset manager. Vanessa Robert, Senior Credit Officer at Moody’s, remarked, “The Aa bond fund rating signals our confidence in the fund’s asset quality and operational controls, despite its use of emerging blockchain technologies.”

Particula’s A+ Rating

Particula emphasized the robust operational structure, transparency, and use of the Centrifuge platform for tokenization, which ensures secure onchain efficiency, scalability, and regulatory compliance. Particula’s report also highlighted the direct ownership of U.S. Treasury Bills as a significant factor in safeguarding investor interests.

Timm Reinsdorf, CEO at Particula, commented, "The A+ rating reflects Anemoy's effective integration of blockchain technology within traditional asset management practices, highlighting a secure and well-executed deployment of decentralized solutions that create high standards of transparency and operational efficiency."

Anemoy’s Liquid Treasury Fund has seen rapid growth, with assets under management increasing by 211% in the last 30 days. This surge in demand demonstrates investor confidence in both the fund and the broader potential of tokenized assets.

Martin Quensel, Co-founder of Anemoy, expressed his pride in the team’s accomplishment: “Securing these ratings from both Moody’s and Particula validates our vision of bridging traditional finance with decentralized technology. This marks a significant step forward for institutional adoption of tokenized assets, and we’re just getting started.”

The dual ratings from Moody’s and Particula underscore the growing institutional confidence in tokenized assets and signal a new era of financial innovation. As Anemoy continues to pioneer this space with trusted partners like Janus Henderson and Centrifuge, the Liquid Treasury Fund sets the stage for broader institutional engagement in onchain markets.

Anemoy and Centrifuge have seen significant momentum in the last weeks, announcing partnerships with Janus Henderson, Chronicle and Archax, and submitting a competitive bid for the Spark Tokenization Grand Prix. By leveraging Centrifuge’s cutting-edge infrastructure and Anemoy’s expertise, the two firms have created a unique advantage for delivering value across the intersection of traditional and crypto markets.
