Ondo Finance Secures EU Regulatory Approval to Offer Tokenized Stocks, ETFs

Ondo Global Markets has received regulatory approval to offer tokenized stocks and ETFs to investors across the European Union and broader European Economic Area, the company announced in a statement on Tuesday.

The authorization from the Liechtenstein Financial Market Authority extends across the EEA through its passporting regime, enabling Ondo to serve investors in 30 European countries, including all EU member states plus Iceland, Liechtenstein, and Norway. The approval makes regulated onchain exposure to U.S. markets accessible to more than 500 million potential investors in the region.

The regulatory clearance allows Ondo to offer tokenized stocks and ETFs to retail investors within a unified European framework that aligns with established investor-protection standards. The company described the approval as a significant step in bringing traditional financial assets onto blockchain infrastructure.

Ondo positioned the regulatory milestone as foundational for its vision of global markets operating seamlessly onchain, combining traditional market access with blockchain technology infrastructure under regulatory oversight.

Ondo Global Markets operates what it describes as the largest platform for tokenized stocks and ETFs, with more than $315 million in total value locked and over $1 billion in volume since launch, according to the company. The platform provides institutional-grade infrastructure for tokenized assets.
