Franklin Templeton brings its Benji tokenization platform to BNB Chain offering institutional-grade access to blockchain-native money market funds and securities

September 26, 2025 //  by Finnovate

Franklin Templeton announced it would expand its Benji Technology Platform to BNB Chain, signaling a stronger push into on-chain finance. The move links one of the world’s largest asset managers with a blockchain known for low fees, fast settlement, and a growing base of retail and institutional users. The Benji platform powers the Franklin OnChain US Government Money Fund (FOBXX), the first US-registered mutual fund to record share ownership and process transactions on a blockchain. Each share equals one BENJI token, which supports daily subscriptions, peer-to-peer transfers, and real-time net asset values. Franklin Templeton said adding BNB Chain helps the platform “meet more investors where they’re active” while keeping compliance and security at the center. By cutting gas fees and running more than 200 transactions per second, BNB Chain expects to lower barriers for both large allocators and smaller retail users. “Integrating with BNB Chain allows Franklin Templeton to be present where client demand is growing. It also positions us to be ready as the market evolves and interest grows for new types of products beyond what we’re doing with tokenized money funds,” Mike Reed, Senior Vice President and Head of Digital Asset Partnership Development for Franklin Templeton told. Franklin Templeton’s expansion to BNB Chain marks a move from testing to large-scale rollouts. Whether these products see broad uptake will depend on regulatory clarity, reliable infrastructure, and investor demand beyond safe-haven assets.
