The tokenization firm behind BlackRock’s BUIDL fund and the NYSE’s 24/7 tokenized stock platform is set to close its Cantor SPAC deal on July 1 and debut under the ticker SECZ the following day.
Posted June 29, 2026 at 6:56 am EST.
Securitize, the world’s largest tokenized real-world assets platform by assets under management, is on track to raise approximately $400 million in gross proceeds from its business combination with Cantor Equity Partners II (Nasdaq: CEPT), close the transaction on July 1, and begin trading on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker SECZ on July 2, pending CEPT shareholder approval at a special meeting on June 29. The company announced Thursday that fewer than 30% of CEPT Class A ordinary shares were tendered for redemption, securing strong investor retention and locking in the $400 million figure including related PIPE financings.
The deal, originally announced in October, merges Securitize with a Cantor Fitzgerald-sponsored SPAC. The combined entity will operate as Securitize Corp. Citigroup Global Markets is acting as financial and capital markets advisor to Securitize; Cantor Fitzgerald is advising CEPT. Citi and Cantor are co-placement agents on the PIPE.

Securitize CEO Carlos Domingo called the NYSE listing a reflection of the “growing momentum behind tokenization,” noting the company began more than eight years ago when institutional adoption was largely theoretical.
Securitize currently manages more than $4 billion in AUM from tokenized funds issued with Apollo, BlackRock, BNY, Hamilton Lane, KKR, and VanEck. Its U.S. operations include an SEC-registered broker-dealer running an Alternative Trading System, an SEC-registered transfer agent, and a fund administration arm. In Europe, it holds a full Investment Firm authorization to operate a Trading and Settlement System under the EU’s DLT Pilot Regime, making it the only company licensed for regulated digital securities infrastructure in both the U.S. and EU. The company was named to Forbes’ top 50 fintech list for 2026.
Securitize was tapped by the NYSE in March to build its 24/7 tokenized equity trading platform, and it partnered with Jump Trading last month to trade tokenized stocks.
Securitize also announced earlier this week that Continental Stock Transfer & Trust has selected it as a preferred tokenization provider.
