Analysts Issue Buy Calls on Token Boom
Cantor Fitzgerald initiated a buy recommendation on shares of Securitize Corp., alongside a price target of $21.20, citing the latter’s position in the tokenization of traditional equities.
The figure marked a 47.6 percent upside potential from its latest closing price.
Traditional financial assets total $319 trillion worldwide at present, with only $39 billion, or 0.01 percent of the total, currently on-chain. This creates a major opportunity for Securitize Corp. in traditional equities that have yet to be tokenized.
The listed firm manages around $5 billion of tokenized assets under management across 23 public blockchains, and operates various services such as issuing, registering, custodying, distributing, and enabling trading, among others.
Rosenblatt, for its part, recommended investors buy its shares, while conservatively raising its price target to $13 from $11 previously, citing the SEC’s new Innovation Exemption as a significant catalyst which removed the largest regulatory obstacle to on-chain trading in US equities.
Rosenblatt noted additional potential upside for Securitize Corp., such as the SEC’s recent proposal to modernize rules on transfer agents. It said that it was confident of the listed firm’s ability to execute on its leadership position and monetize the opportunity.
Tokenized Securities
In its approval last Thursday, the SEC granted temporary, conditional exemptive relief for certain trading platforms to issue tokenized representations of publicly traded US stocks effective immediately.
Under the rules, certain trading platforms and liquidity providers will have regulatory relief to facilitate tokenized stock trading, provided that they meet certain conditions, including retained rights for stock token holders similar to traditional stockholders, and that companies must be able to object to having their securities represented as tokens.
The tokenization followed the Senate’s blocking of the Clarity Act, which was designed to create a clear regulatory framework for cryptocurrencies and digital assets.
Securitize Corp.—one of the leading companies in tokenizing real-world assets—is among the listed firms most directly positioned to benefit from the tokenization, thanks to its infrastructure that allows financial assets to be issued, traded, and managed on blockchain rails.
