Ondo Finance acquires SEC-registered Oasis Pro

Ondo Finance has announced its acquisition of Oasis Pro, a US SEC-registered broker-dealer and fintech infrastructure provider, to bolster its position in tokenised real-world assets (RWAs).

The deal grants Ondo access to key regulatory licenses, including broker-dealer, Alternative Trading System (ATS), and Transfer Agent registrations.

With this acquisition, Ondo Finance will be able to offer compliant tokenised securities products to US investors under a fully regulated framework.

CEO Nathan Allman described the acquisition as a turning point for the next major chapter in tokenised finance.

Oasis Pro CEO Pat LaVecchia said the merger fuses his firm’s regulatory structure with Ondo’s onchain infrastructure to build a compliant ecosystem for tokenised securities.

“This acquisition combines our brokerage platform and licenses with Ondo’s existing institutional-grade infrastructure,” LaVecchia stated.

Oasis Pro, founded in 2019, became a FINRA member in 2020 and was one of the first regulated ATS platforms in the US to settle digital securities using fiat and stablecoins.

It operates the OATSPRO ATS, facilitating compliant issuance and secondary trading of tokenised financial instruments.

Ondo Finance, which currently manages over $1.4 billion in tokenised assets, is expanding its institutional-grade product suite.

The company plans to offer tokenised stock access to non-US investors in the near future.

Industry analysts forecast that tokenised equities alone could exceed $18 trillion in market value by 2033, underlining the sector’s long-term growth potential.

Ondo’s acquisition gives it a powerful regulatory advantage as competition intensifies in the tokenised RWA space.

The merger positions Ondo at the intersection of traditional finance and Web3, further bridging capital markets with blockchain-based platforms.

The transaction is pending regulatory approval, and financial details of the deal have not been disclosed.
