Ondo Finance Secures Liechtenstein's FMA Approval

500 Million European Investors Impacted by New Access
The move impacts over 500 million European investors potentially accessing tokenized assets. Ondo’s EEA approval is seen as a landmark for regulated securities in Europe, impacting Ethereum and related cryptocurrencies.
Ondo's approval may boost regulatory clarity for tokenized assets in Europe. Historical data shows that similar initiatives, like the US Treasuries, have rapidly increased on-chain Total Value Locked (TVL).
Nathan Allman, Founder & CEO, Ondo Finance, - "Ondo Receives EU Approval to Offer Tokenized Stocks and ETFs Across Europe. This is a major step toward our mission of democratizing access to global markets and delivering real-world assets onchain."
Ondo's Approval Marks Significant Milestone for ETFs
Compared to Societe Generale's euro stablecoin release, Ondo’s approval provides the first regulatory clarity for tokenized ETF access. Past unregulated ETFs faced bans across Europe, making this approval significant.
Experts note that the approval could usher a new era for regulated digital assets in Europe. Ondo’s proactive approach leverages historical accessibility challenges, setting a precedent in the blockchain financial markets.
