Securitize has secured FINRA approval to significantly expand the capabilities of its broker-dealer subsidiary, Securitize Markets, positioning the firm as the first regular broker-dealer authorized to custody tokenized securities and enable onchain atomic settlement between those securities and stablecoins. This approval also permits Securitize Markets to act as an underwriter and selling group member for both primary and secondary tokenized securities offerings, directly integrating tokenization into the IPO and follow-on equity issuance process.
The new permissions allow Securitize to collapse what has historically been a multi-step, multi-intermediary workflow into a single onchain transaction, reducing operational friction and settlement risk while aligning blockchain-based settlement with a fully regulated U.S. broker-dealer and ATS framework. Management positions this as foundational infrastructure for onchain capital markets, enabling real-time settlement and expanding Securitize’s trading and distribution reach just as it moves toward a proposed business combination with Cantor Equity Partners II, Inc., after which the combined company, Securitize Holdings, Inc., is expected to list on NYSE or Nasdaq under the ticker SECZ in the first half of 2026, subject to regulatory and shareholder approvals.
