Securitize Capital Completes SEC Investment Advisor Registration

Securitize Capital finalized SEC registration as an investment advisor, removing previous $150M asset limits and completing the firm's full regulatory compliance matrix for tokenized securities.

Woofun AI reports that Securitize Capital LLC, a subsidiary of Securitize Corp., has officially registered as an investment advisor with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, effective July 22. This registration eliminates prior restrictions that limited the subsidiary to serving venture capital funds or private funds with assets under $150 million. The move finalizes Securitize’s regulatory framework for tokenized securities, ensuring its U.S. affiliates now hold registrations as investment advisors, broker-dealers, alternative trading systems, transfer agents, and fund managers. This development follows a warning from SEC Commissioner Hester Peirce regarding potential regulatory overlaps in on-chain treasury strategies.

Meanwhile, Securitize shares declined nearly 10% to $6.76, valuing the company at approximately $1 billion.
