In a landmark move for institutional blockchain adoption, Hamilton Lane has introduced its flagship Senior Credit Opportunities Fund (SCOPE) on the Sei Network, leveraging the real-world asset (RWA) platform KAIO for cutting-edge on-chain infrastructure. This development transforms access to private credit investment, extending reach to qualified institutional and accredited investors globally through a digitally native channel.
The SCOPE fund’s tokenization via KAIO signals the next phase in programmable financial infrastructure, built for an era increasingly defined by real-time transactions and borderless portfolio management. KAIO’s institutional-grade compliance ensures that investments meet U.S. financial regulations, complete with comprehensive KYC checks and robust access control.
Victor Jung, Head of Digital Assets at Hamilton Lane, underscores the strategic embrace of blockchain technology: “Our integration with Sei Network and KAIO enables a wider group of investors to explore private credit opportunities previously limited to select institutions. With nearly $1 trillion in assets under management and three decades of market experience, Hamilton Lane is well positioned to lead this shift.”
KAIO’s reputation is further endorsed by its association with industry heavyweights such as BlackRock, Brevan Howard, and Laser Digital, collectively holding $200 million in tokenized assets on the platform. The Sei Network partnership marks a significant expansion of access, compliance, and transparency for the alternative investment landscape.
This launch not only accelerates adoption of blockchain in institutional asset management, but also points to the future of finance—one defined by composability, efficiency, and the democratization of private market strategies.
