Trading on the NYSE under ticker symbol “SECZ” is expected to begin July 2, 2026 as Securitize continues building the next generation of capital markets
MIAMI and NEW YORK, July 1, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Securitize Corp. (“Securitize”), the world’s leading tokenization platform with over $4 billion in assets brought onchain, today announced the successful completion of the previously announced business combination with Cantor Equity Partners II, Inc. (Nasdaq: CEPT). Securitize’s common stock will commence trading on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) under the ticker symbol SECZ on July 2, 2026.
“Our public listing represents much more than a milestone for Securitize,” said Carlos Domingo, CEO of Securitize. “When we founded Securitize, we believed blockchain would become the next generation of capital markets infrastructure, long before institutional adoption reached today’s scale. We chose to build inside the regulatory framework from day one because we believed that was the only path to institutional adoption. Becoming a public company enables us to continue building the infrastructure institutions and investors need as more capital markets move onchain.”
Since announcing the proposed business combination, Securitize has continued expanding its institutional platform through collaborations with the New York Stock Exchange, Computershare, Continental, and other leading market participants, while deepening relationships with the world’s largest asset managers, including BlackRock.
As a public company, Securitize will continue investing in trusted infrastructure that enables public companies and financial institutions to issue, manage, and trade tokenized securities at scale; deepen relationships across the financial ecosystem; expand globally into regulated markets; and help turn tokenization from an emerging technology into foundational capital markets infrastructure.
“The transformation of capital markets is still in its early stages,” Domingo added. “Institutions don’t adopt infrastructure on enthusiasm. They adopt it because it’s trusted. That’s been our focus from day one, and we believe that’s how tokenization becomes a permanent part of global capital markets.”
Securitize executives will commemorate the Company’s public listing by ringing the NYSE Closing Bell on July 6, 2026.
