Securitize Gains EU Approval to Operate DLT Trading System
Securitize, a leader in tokenization infrastructure for real-world assets, has secured regulatory approval to operate a trading and settlement system under the EU's DLT Pilot Regime. The green light from Spain's National Securities Market Commission (CNMV) positions Securitize as the sole licensed tokenization provider in both the EU and the US.
The firm plans to leverage Avalanche's network for its European operations, citing rapid settlement times and institutional-grade adaptability. The first issuance under this framework is anticipated by early 2026.
This milestone follows Securitize's December 2024 acquisition of an Investment Firm license from CNMV, further solidifying its regulatory standing. The approval underscores Europe's progressive stance on blockchain-based financial infrastructure.
