In a move reflecting the accelerating pace of digital asset regulation, Federated Hermes has launched the Digital Treasury Fund, specifically designed to comply with the requirements of the US GENIUS Act. The new fund aims to provide liquidity solutions and collateral management for issuers of payment-stablecoins. According to reports, the fund invests its assets in US dollar cash and US Treasury investments maturing within a 93-day window.

Sign InThis launch comes as major financial institutions seek to strengthen their presence in stablecoin infrastructure, with Federated Hermes competing alongside firms like BlackRock, which manages the BUIDL digital liquidity fund. Per market data, demand for regulated reserve management tools is rising as new legislation imposes strict standards on the quality of assets backing stablecoins. The GENIUS Act serves as a key pillar in defining how user funds are protected and ensuring digital market stability.
Operationally, the fund focuses on overnight repurchase agreements to ensure the highest levels of daily liquidity. Investors should monitor upcoming US economic data, particularly following the ISM Services PMI which reached 54.5 on June 3, 2026, as it impacts short-term Treasury yields. Markets are also looking ahead to ECB President Lagarde’s speech on June 4, 2026, for signals on global monetary policy and its influence on money market fund flows.
