The transaction is expected to generate up to $469 million in gross proceeds, including a $225 million private investment in public equity (PIPE) financing round.
This capital infusion will strengthen Securitize’s ability to scale operations and advance its mission to make capital markets more accessible and efficient through tokenization.

The combined company will be renamed Securitize Corp. and is expected to list on Nasdaq under the ticker symbol “SECZ”.
Securitize Strengthens Industry Leadership
The public listing further cements Securitize’s position as a leading player in the tokenization space.
Having enabled over $4 billion in tokenized assets to date, the company’s public profile could draw more attention and adoption.
Securitize provides a comprehensive ecosystem that integrates with major blockchains and financial institutions, distinguishing itself as the first vertically integrated tokenization provider registered with the SEC.
Clients such as BlackRock and Apollo have used the platform to tokenize funds and other assets.
“This is a pivotal moment for Securitize and for the future of finance,” said Carlos Domingo, co-founder and CEO of Securitize. “We founded this company to democratize capital markets by making them more accessible, transparent, and efficient through tokenization. This is the next chapter in bringing financial markets up to the speed of the internet and another step toward our mission of putting the next generation of finance on-chain and tokenizing the world.”
The listing is expected to accelerate tokenization adoption within traditional financial markets. Brandon Lutnick, CEO of Cantor Fitzgerald, commented:
“We believe blockchain technology has immense potential to transform finance, and our partnership with Securitize underscores our conviction that tokenization will be a foundational force in the next era of capital markets.”
The real-world assets (RWA) tokenization market grew by 135% over the past year and now totals approximately $35 billion, according to recent data.
Analysts at Citi project that the tokenized RWA sector could expand to nearly $4 trillion by 2030.
