Sygnum FIUSD (Fidelity Institutional Liquidity Fund, US Dollar Fund, Class G Acc)

What the client owns
Claim to one Class G Acc unit of Fidelity Institutional Liquidity Fund plc, The United States Dollar Fund, an Irish UCITS low-volatility money market fund, held by Sygnum in its own name for the token holder. Third-party custodial: A custodian’s security entitlement in the form of a token; the holder’s claim is against the custodian.
Who may hold it
Not offered to US persons. No first purchase minimum. Sygnum says transfers are open only to professional investors fully onboarded with Sygnum under Swiss law, whose custodial wallets it whitelists after know-your-customer checks. The fund’s Class G units carry no minimum subscription or holding under the prospectus Sygnum cites; Sygnum has not published its own account terms. No published Sygnum document says whether U.S. persons may hold, and Fidelity’s site blocks automated reads of its prospectus. We use the stricter reading: non-U.S. only. Sygnum charges 0.20% to subscribe and 0.40% to redeem, on top of the fund’s 0.25% a year.
Who can freeze or claw back
ZKsync Era: can freeze a holder, pause transfers, claw back, gate who may hold, mint, change the code. A 3-of-6 multisig can change the code with no delay.
Arbitrum: can freeze a holder, pause transfers, claw back, gate who may hold, mint, change the code. A single key can change the code with no delay.
How a holder redeems
Redeem with the issuer in its window. The holder asks Sygnum to redeem; Sygnum burns the tokens, sells the fund units through J.P. Morgan, and credits the proceeds to the holder’s Sygnum account in dollars, another fiat currency, or crypto. The fund settles the same day and has several dealing cutoffs a day, 40 bps fee. Settles in USD.

Subscribers see which of their clients hold this program and whether each household qualifies under these terms, and Ketju emails them when the file changes. $299 per firm per month, first 30 days free.

Who controls it

Ketju read these powers from the deployed contracts and their verified source code: the token and every contract it checks on a transfer. A power listed here is something the issuer can do; it does not mean the issuer has used it.

Who holds the keys

Ketju read every current holder of each power from the chain on 2026-09-23. A single key is one private key, and whoever holds it acts alone. A multisig needs the stated number of signers. A timelock delays every action, so holders can see it before it takes effect.

Daily checks

Every day Ketju reads each control function in the table above and the contracts the token checks on a transfer. Ketju compares the token’s on-chain supply with yesterday’s, and its market quote with yesterday’s quote, since a fund of this kind accrues a few basis points a day. Ketju also reads every document quoted above and reviews the file again if a quoted passage disappears from its document. Ketju counts a new, removed, or changed key as a change only when the chain’s own log shows the grant, revocation, or signer change since yesterday. If the log does not show it, Ketju updates the key list in this file and does nothing more. A change opens a review before any client action. Subscribers get an email that names each of their clients who hold the token, with the household result.
