Ondo Finance Seals Oasis Pro Deal, Gains SEC Broker and Trading Licenses

TLDR:

  • Ondo Finance finalizes Oasis Pro acquisition, unlocking full SEC-registered digital asset licenses for tokenized markets.
  • The deal gives Ondo control of broker-dealer, ATS, and transfer agent operations for regulated tokenized securities.
  • Oasis Pro’s infrastructure brings compliant trading for tokenized equities, debt, and structured products to Ondo’s platform.
  • With $1.6B in tokenized assets, Ondo now aims to lead the $18 trillion market for tokenized securities by 2033.

Ondo Finance has completed its acquisition of Oasis Pro, marking a key move in its plan to develop regulated tokenized markets in the United States. 

The purchase includes Oasis Pro’s SEC-registered broker-dealer, alternative trading system, and transfer agent licenses. This gives Ondo one of the broadest sets of regulatory approvals in the U.S. for digital asset services. 

The deal positions the firm to bridge blockchain technology with traditional capital markets as adoption of real-world asset tokenization accelerates. According to an official statement posted by Ondo Finance on X, the integration sets the stage for a new chapter in compliant digital finance.

Ondo Expands Regulated Market Reach

Through this deal, Ondo gains the regulatory and technical framework to issue, manage, and trade tokenized securities under U.S. law. 

Oasis Pro’s infrastructure adds a full-stack engine for asset tokenization, a digital transfer agent solution, and an operational secondary trading system. The company can now handle both public and private tokenized securities, using either fiat or stablecoins.

Oasis Pro’s licenses also allow trading of traditional NMS securities, corporate debt, and structured products, among others. This gives Ondo the tools to support complex financial instruments on blockchain while staying compliant with existing U.S. securities regulations. 

The expanded coverage now includes closed-end mutual funds, REITs, and asset-backed securities.

Executives said the acquisition strengthens Ondo’s foundation for creating regulated tokenized investment products. With this, the firm can develop secure, compliant channels for investors seeking exposure to blockchain-based securities.

Building a Full-Scale Tokenized Finance Ecosystem

Oasis Pro, founded in 2019, was among the first SEC-regulated platforms to enable settlement of digital securities in both fiat and stablecoins such as USDC and DAI. 

It operates as a FINRA member broker-dealer and Alternative Trading System, alongside an SEC-registered Transfer Agent. Its infrastructure has supported compliant digital trading solutions for institutional clients and contributed to FINRA’s ongoing crypto regulatory initiatives.

Now part of Ondo’s group, this infrastructure provides a base for expanding access to tokenized investments. 

Ondo, already managing over $1.6 billion in tokenized assets, plans to use these licenses to broaden its offerings for both institutional and retail investors. This move places the company ahead in a tokenization market projected to exceed $18 trillion by 2033.

The company said its priority is to deliver transparency, compliance, and accessibility in tokenized finance. According to the official announcement, the acquisition helps Ondo establish one of the most comprehensive regulated ecosystems for digital assets in the United States.
