Ondo Finance Launches Ethereum-Based Custodial Tokenized Securities Service in the US

Ondo Finance has announced the launch of a third-party custodial tokenized securities solution in the United States, designed to comply with local regulatory frameworks. The underlying assets are issued on the Ethereum blockchain, and the company has partnered with financial infrastructure service provider Broadridge to offer tokenized stock holders comprehensive shareholder governance and proxy voting services.The solution adopts a two-tier compliance architecture: the underlying stocks remain held within the US licensed traditional custody system; Ondo’s registered transfer agent mints tokens on a 1:1 basis and deploys them on the Ethereum public chain, while the underlying physical securities are simultaneously held by a compliant custodian for safekeeping.
