Securitize Gains EU Approval for Tokenized Market System on Avalanche

Securitize Gains EU Approval for Tokenized Market System on Avalanche

  • Spain’s securities regulator authorized Securitize under the EU DLT Pilot Regime to operate tokenized trading and settlement infrastructure.
  • The approval connects EU operations with the firm’s existing U.S. regulatory framework and follows its earlier investment firm license.
  • Securitize will launch its system on Avalanche and plans the first issuance for early 2026 as it advances a $1.25 billion SPAC listing.

Securitize gained approval to operate a tokenized trading and settlement system in the European Union after Spain’s securities regulator authorized the firm under the region’s DLT Pilot Regime. The development arrived as the company prepared for a planned $1.25 billion SPAC listing and continued its work with major asset managers. The new authorization created a pathway for Securitize to run market infrastructure that supports issuing, trading, and settling tokenized securities across the bloc.

Authorization Enables Infrastructure-Level Operations

Spain’s National Securities Market Commission issued the authorization and opened access for Securitize to operate its European platform. The approval covered system activity across the EU and connected the new framework to the company’s existing U.S. operations. 

The firm currently works in the United States as a registered broker-dealer, transfer agent, fund administrator, and operator of an alternative trading system. This alignment created a cross-regional structure that supported regulated tokenization activity in both markets.

Securitize selected Avalanche to support its European trading and settlement system. The company cited the network’s near-instant settlement and architecture that can adjust to institutional requirements. The firm planned the first issuance under the approval for early 2026. The launch marked a shift toward blockchain-based securities activity within a regulated environment.

Expanded Licensing in the European Union

The authorization followed a separate Investment Firm license that the company received from the same regulator in December 2024. That license allowed the firm to execute orders, safeguard assets, and manage digital transfer-agent duties for tokenized securities. Authorities later passported the license across several major EU jurisdictions, including Germany, France, Italy, Luxembourg, and the Netherlands. 

The new approval extended those permissions and granted the firm the ability to operate the infrastructure that underpins regulated digital markets. Securitize continued to support tokenized products for several large asset managers. The firm issued BlackRock’s BUIDL fund , which became the first on-chain Treasurys product to pass $1 billion in assets. The fund later grew to more than $4 billion. 

The company also worked with institutions including Apollo, Hamilton Lane, and VanEck on tokenization initiatives that operated within regulated structures. The new authorization arrived as the company pursued a $1.25 billion SPAC transaction sponsored by Cantor Fitzgerald. The expanded regulatory position created new capacity for tokenized markets within the EU and linked those activities to existing U.S. operations.
