SEC registration of Securitize Capital expands Securitize's regulated platform and positions the
company to deepen its work with asset managers and institutional investors
MIAMI, July 27, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Securitize Corp. ("Securitize") (NYSE: SECZ), the leader in tokenized assets, today announced that its subsidiary, Securitize Capital LLC ("Securitize Capital"), is now registered with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") as an investment adviser.
The registration marks another expansion of Securitize's regulated platform for onchain capital markets. Through its U.S. affiliates, Securitize now combines an SEC-registered investment adviser with an SEC-registered broker-dealer and Alternative Trading System ("ATS"), an SEC-registered transfer agent and fund administration services.
The registration provides a broader foundation for Securitize Capital's advisory business and positions Securitize to deepen its relationships with asset managers, institutional investors and other sophisticated market participants. The timing comes as regulators consider how established investment-adviser obligations may apply to emerging onchain portfolio-management tools. In a July 22 statement, SEC Commissioner Hester M. Peirce noted that managing certain crypto vaults and lending strategies may implicate investment-adviser issues, depending on their structure and activities. As these models develop, Securitize Capital is positioned to work with market participants exploring onchain investment strategies within applicable regulatory frameworks, supported by Securitize's broader capabilities across product development, distribution, ownership recordkeeping, trading and administration.
"Becoming an SEC-registered investment adviser is an important step in the continued expansion of Securitize's platform," said Carlos Domingo, Co-Founder and CEO of Securitize. "Asset managers and institutional investors want to work with partners that understand both the opportunity of tokenization and the obligations that come with operating in regulated markets. Through Securitize Capital, we are adding another important capability to our full stack and strengthening our ability to help institutions develop and manage investment strategies built for an onchain financial system."
Securitize Capital previously operated as an exempt reporting adviser. As an SEC-registered investment adviser, Securitize Capital is subject to additional public disclosure, compliance, recordkeeping and examination requirements under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940.
