Ondo Finance (@OndoFinance): Ondo Global Markets Files Registration Statement with SEC

Ondo Global Markets Files Registration Statement with SEC Once effective, Ondo’s currently confidential filing would provide all investors in Ondo Global Markets tokenized products around the world with the detailed information about the issuer mandated by SEC requirements. These are generally considered to be the gold standard for securities disclosure globally. By voluntarily undertaking to meet those SEC requirements, Ondo and the issuer are ensuring that all investors in Ondo Global Markets products have equal access to the highest quality information available, and are supporting the free exchange of Ondo Global Markets products onchain to the maximum extent permitted by law. Once effective, the filing would make Ondo Global Markets the first issuer of transferable tokenized stocks to be subject to the SEC’s reporting requirements. Ondo is the only platform building the regulatory and product infrastructure to support all major models of securities tokenization in the United States, including direct ownership, beneficial ownership, and digitally-native tokenized securities. Already the largest tokenized equities platform globally, Ondo Global Markets has surpassed $500M+ in TVL, enabled over $10B in cumulative trading volume, and reached tens of thousands of asset holders outside the U.S. By voluntarily undertaking to meet those SEC requirements, Ondo Finance and the issuer are laying the foundation for all Ondo Global Markets investors to have equal access to the highest quality information available, to support the free exchange of Ondo Global Markets products onchain to the maximum extent permitted by law. From both a regulatory and operational standpoint, once the currently confidential filing is effective, Ondo Global Markets will be well positioned to quickly enter any new market and support the primary and/or secondary market trading of tokenized securities anywhere in the world – including the United States – when regulatory and market conditions are favorable. Tokenization in the U.S. is often framed as a choice between competing models: direct ownership of traditional securities in tokenized form, tokenized beneficial ownership, or digitally-native tokenized securities that provide exposure to traditional assets. Ondo Finance is the only platform building the regulatory, product and service infrastructure to support all three approaches within the United States. Through an integrated stack that includes an SEC-registered transfer agent, broker-dealer, investment adviser, and alternative trading system (ATS), Ondo Finance has the capabilities and licensing to tokenize corporate equities and funds, enable direct ownership by U.S. retail and institutional investors, and support compliant secondary market trading of tokenized securities. Already available to investors outside the U.S. – and with an approved base prospectus for offering tokens to the public across the EU and EEA – Ondo Global Markets has rapidly become the largest tokenized equities platform globally. In less than 6 months, it has grown to over $500M in total value locked — more TVL than all other platforms combined — and enabled over $9B in cumulative volume with tens of thousands of asset holders. Peter Curley, Head of Global Regulatory Affairs at Ondo Finance: “This confidential filing marks a pivotal moment in the global expansion of tokenized securities markets. Setting this new disclosure standard for tokenized securities like the Ondo Global Markets products means there are really no barriers to offering the primary and secondary market trading of those products anywhere in the world when regulatory and market conditions are favorable. We’ve built the infrastructure, proven global demand, and are uniquely positioned to support every major model of securities tokenization — all within a fully compliant framework.” As tokenized securities markets continue to grow, Ondo is steadily building the future-state of onchain capital markets.
