New York, NY — Ondo Finance, a leading innovator in the tokenized real-world assets (RWA) space, has announced a definitive agreement to acquire Oasis Pro, a U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC)-registered broker-dealer and fintech infrastructure provider. The acquisition marks a pivotal step in Ondo’s strategy to bridge traditional financial markets with blockchain-based systems under a fully regulated framework.
Strengthening Regulatory Capabilities for Tokenized Markets
Through the acquisition, Ondo Finance will assume control of Oasis Pro’s key regulatory licenses, which include:
SEC-Registered Broker-Dealer License
Alternative Trading System (ATS) Registration
Transfer Agent License
These licenses will enable Ondo to operate compliant platforms for the issuance and secondary trading of tokenized securities in the U.S., enhancing its ability to serve institutional clients seeking regulated exposure to digital assets.
Nathan Allman, CEO of Ondo Finance, commented on the significance of the deal:
“This marks the beginning of the next major chapter in tokenized finance, where innovation must be paired with regulatory clarity and institutional trust.”
Merging Blockchain Innovation with Regulatory Infrastructure
Pat LaVecchia, CEO of Oasis Pro, highlighted the strategic synergy between the two firms:
“Combining Oasis Pro’s licensing and brokerage capabilities with Ondo’s institutional-grade technology and product suite creates a powerful, end-to-end foundation for regulated tokenized securities.”
Oasis Pro, founded in 2019 and a FINRA member since 2020, operates one of the first U.S.-regulated ATS platforms capable of settling digital securities in both fiat currency and stablecoins. Its flagship platform, OATSPRO, offers compliant infrastructure for issuing, trading, and settling tokenized financial instruments.
Scaling Global Operations and Market Share
Ondo Finance currently manages over $1.4 billion in tokenized assets across global markets and is preparing to launch tokenized equity offerings for non-U.S. investors. The firm cites research suggesting that the tokenized equities market could grow to over $18 trillion by 2033—an indicator of the vast potential in this sector.
While the financial terms of the deal were not disclosed, the transaction remains subject to customary regulatory approvals.
