Maples and Calder, the Maples Group’s law firm, is pleased to have advised Edge Capital on the successful tokenisation of a fund. This is one of the first regulated Cayman Islands investment fund vehicles to be brought on-chain, following the recent passing of the Cayman Islands Mutual Funds (Amendment) Bill, 2026 and the Private Funds (Amendment) Bill, 2026.
A team of lawyers based in the Group’s Cayman Islands office acted as Cayman Islands counsel to Edge Capital and was led by partners Gwyneth Rees (Funds & Investment Management) and Patrick Head (Regulatory & Financial Services).
Commenting on the transaction, Patrick Head said, “This transaction is one of the first to put the Cayman Islands’ new statutory framework for tokenised funds into practice, demonstrating its effectiveness and further enhancing the Cayman Islands’ position as a leading international financial centre.”
