The Polygon team announced via a blog post on Tuesday that Hamilton Lane’s $2.1 billion flagship fund is opening its doors to individual investors by leveraging Securitize’s tokenization platform on the Polygon network.
Polygon explained that Hamilton Lane, a leading global investment firm with $823.9 billion of assets under management and supervision, is making a portion of its Equity Opportunities Fund V accessible to individual investors via a new Securitize feeder fund. With these tokenized funds, investors have a way to access historically high-performing private equity asset class, with minimum investments reduced from an average of $5 million to just $20,000.
