The approval centers on Ondo’s Base Prospectus, which was reviewed and authorized by the Liechtenstein Financial Market Authority (FMA).
Liechtenstein is an EU passporting jurisdiction, meaning a single approval there extends to all 27 EU member states plus Iceland, Norway, as well as Liechtenstein itself—30 markets in total.
This milestone unlocks advantages for Ondo Global Markets, the entity behind the offering:Retail investors throughout Europe can now directly purchase and hold tokenized versions of equities and ETFs, bringing 24/7 trading and blockchain settlement to traditional asset classes.
The operation falls under a regulated, EU-compliant framework that adheres to the bloc’s investor-protection rules, including transparency, custody, and disclosure requirements.
The approval reinforces Ondo’s position as a key player in the fast-growing tokenized real-world asset (RWA) sector. Ondo Global Markets currently operates the platform for tokenized securities by total value locked, with more than $315 million in assets under management and over $1 billion in cumulative trading volume since its launch.
By bridging traditional finance with blockchain infrastructure inside a recognized regulatory framework, Ondo is setting a standard for how stocks, bonds, and funds can migrate onchain while maintaining the safeguards investors expect from legacy markets.
The EU approval follows similar progress in other jurisdictions and signals growing institutional interest in tokenized securities.
For European retail and professional investors, it means direct, compliant access to a new generation of digital assets that combine the familiarity of conventional equities with the efficiency of DLT / blockchain tech.
As adoption of web3 and tokenized financial products accelerates, Ondo’s pan-European license positions the firm at the forefront of a structural and potential paradigm shift that could eventually bring significantly more traditional assets onto public or permissionless blockchains.
