SEI (NASDAQ:SEIC) has announced a strategic partnership with tokenization platform Ctrl Alt to participate in the Bank of England's Digital Securities Sandbox (DSS). The collaboration aims to explore blockchain and distributed ledger technology applications in traditional financial infrastructure.

Through SEI Investments Europe (SIEL), the company will provide underlying assets for tokenization in the DSS's second phase, potentially managing custody and crypto-asset activity. The initiative comes as projections indicate 10% of global GDP will be tokenized and stored on blockchain by 2027.

Additionally, SEI Ventures Inc. has made an early-stage investment in Ctrl Alt, though the investment is described as immaterial to SEI's financial results. The partnership focuses on developing tokenized solutions to enhance security, transparency, and efficiency across financial services.

SEI (NASDAQ:SEIC) has announced an expansion of its direct index separately managed account (SMA) strategies and enhancements to unified managed account (UMA) solutions. The company introduced new Systematic Core Strategies including S&P 500® Core, U.S. SMID Cap Core, and U.S. Small Cap Core, alongside Parametric Portfolio Associates' Custom Core solutions.

The expansion targets mass-affluent, high-net-worth, and ultra-high-net-worth investors, focusing on three key trends: increasing demand for tax-efficient solutions, combination of public beta and private alpha in UMA strategies, and scaled integration of sophisticated investment solutions. The strategies feature tax optimization capabilities, including opportunistic tax-loss harvesting during market volatility and gain deferral for tax efficiency. SEI provides personalized 'Estimated Taxes Saved' reports to advisors with client-specific tax management information.

The tax-managed portfolios feature ETFs' tax efficiency benefits, municipal bond ETF exposure, and systematic tax-loss harvesting capabilities.

This initiative comes amid strong industry growth, with asset managers and third-party strategist model providers experiencing a 21.4% asset growth rate in 2023. Capital Group currently offers 22 active ETFs in the U.S. market, designed for integration into core client portfolios.
