November 19, 2025- Ondo Finance secures EU approval to offer tokenized stocks and ETFs across 30 EEA markets. The approval expands regulated access to tokenized equities for over 500 million retail investors, marking a major milestone in the growth of compliant digital asset infrastructure across Europe.
This approval, granted by the Liechtenstein Financial Market Authority (FMA), authorizes Ondo Finance to issue and distribute tokenized stocks and ETFs across the European Economic Area.
The green-lighted Base Prospectus enables EU passporting, unlocking access to 30 markets and more than 500 million retail investors. It represents one of the most significant regulatory milestones in the tokenization sector to date.
Ondo Finance has rapidly grown into a leading platform for tokenized real-world assets, offering institutional-grade products like USDY and OUSG. Backed by investors such as Pantera Capital and Founders Fund, Ondo now manages over $315 million in TVL and more than $1 billion in cumulative trading volume.
The EU approval strengthens its global presence and reinforces the platform’s strategy to democratize access to yield and securities through tokenization.
The announcement generated excitement, with supporters praising the regulatory breakthrough as a catalyst for mainstream RWA adoption. However, concerns emerged over the $ONDO token’s utility and performance, with several users expressing frustration.
Despite mixed sentiment, industry observers widely view this approval as a transformative moment for regulated tokenized securities.
This approval positions Ondo as a core gateway for regulated tokenized stocks and ETFs across the EEA. With the EU’s growing interest in digital assets and MiCA providing clearer regulatory structures, the new framework could accelerate institutional and retail participation.
Ondo now holds a unique advantage as one of the few platforms with licensed access to retail-compliant tokenized equities at scale.
