Securitize aims to secure around $400 million through its merger with Cantor Fitzgerald's SPAC.
The merger is expected to finalize on July 1, subject to shareholder approval on June 29, and will list the newly formed company on the NYSE under the ticker SECZ.
The tokenization sector, which Securitize is part of, has expanded to a market valuation exceeding $30 billion, with forecasts suggesting it could grow to $18.9 trillion by 2033.

As one of the leading providers of tokenization infrastructure for Wall Street, Securitize anticipates raising about $400 million while pursuing a public listing via a merger with Cantor Equity Partners II (CEPT).

On Friday, the company announced that due to lower-than-anticipated shareholder redemptions, the business combination with CEPT is expected to yield approximately $400 million in gross proceeds, which includes private investment in public equity (PIPE) financing.

Following this announcement, CEPT shares rose by 8%.

The merger is scheduled to close on July 1, pending shareholder approval on June 29 and the fulfillment of other standard closing conditions. The combined entity is expected to commence trading on the New York Stock Exchange the following day under the ticker SECZ.

The process of tokenization, which involves representing assets such as funds, bonds, and private credit on blockchain networks, has rapidly become one of Wall Street's most dynamic digital asset initiatives. According to rwa.xyz, the market for tokenized real-world assets has surpassed $30 billion, not accounting for stablecoins, and projections from Boston Consulting Group and Ripple estimate it could reach $18.9 trillion by 2033.

Securitize, which has backing from major asset management firms including BlackRock and Ark Invest, has established itself as a crucial infrastructure provider in the burgeoning tokenization sector. The firm assists asset managers like Apollo, KKR, Hamilton Lane, and VanEck in issuing blockchain-based versions of traditional investment products. Additionally, Securitize is collaborating with the New York Stock Exchange to develop its tokenized securities platform earlier this year.

CEO Carlos Domingo remarked, "When we started over eight years ago, the notion that significant institutions would adopt tokenized securities was still largely theoretical. Today, tokenization is becoming mainstream."
