Ondo Finance, Clearstream, and 360X have partnered to connect traditional financial markets with onchain infrastructure built on public, permissionless blockchains.
The partnership will see the firms combining their strengths across the full lifecycle of tokenised securities, spanning trading, custody, settlement, and collateral management forming a unified framework for tokenised assets within regulated financial infrastructure.
Matthieu de Vergnes, managing director, global head of institutional at Ondo Finance, states: “By collaborating with Clearstream and 360X we're excited to see Ondo Global Markets become part of the core infrastructure underpinning European institutional markets.
“Having Ondo tokenised assets custodied within Clearstream's network means institutions can access the benefits of onchain securities through the same trusted infrastructure they already rely on.
“This is a major turning point for the adoption of tokenised securities within regulated markets and enables the largest institutions across Europe to enter the onchain economy.”
In the first phase, Ondo tokenised stocks and ETFs are now live on 360X, the regulated digital asset trading venue backed by Deutsche Börse Group.
Broker-dealers and institutional investors across Europe can access and trade these assets within a market environment that meets the EU’s regulatory standards.
The assets are issued on public, permissionless blockchains, including Ethereum, Solana, and BNB Chain.
In the subsequent phase, Ondo tokenised assets will be integrated into custody, settlement, post-trade infrastructure, and the collateral pool of Deutsche Börse Group’s post-trade business Clearstream, enabling institutional investors to access these products similarly to existing workflows, alongside the added benefits of onchain assets.
Ondo also plans to tokenise EU-listed instruments on the Ondo Global Markets platform, with Clearstream supporting the custody of the underlying assets.
Clearstream will make assets it holds in custody in tokenised form available to Ondo for distribution to its existing vast network of clients globally (outside the US).
According to the firms, as part of the first phase, the initial listing on 360X includes AAPLon, AMZNon, CRCLon, GOOGLon, METAon, MSFTon, NVDAon, TSLAon, SPYon, and QQQon — the largest tokenised securities bulk listing on 360X to date.
The launch follows Ondo Global Markets’ recent regulatory approval to offer tokenised stocks and ETFs across 30 European countries in the EU and the European Economic Area (EEA).
The approval enables access for more than 500 million investors to regulated, onchain exposure to US markets.
Carlo Kölzer, CEO of 360X, 360T, and global head of FX & digital assets at Deutsche Börse Group, comments: “The listing of Ondo’s first 10 tokenised stocks and ETFs on our trading venue allows us to broaden the range of digital assets accessible to our clients.
“This integration utilises our robust infrastructure enabling participants to trade, settle, and hold onchain assets, while meeting the specific technical and oversight requirements of our institutional participants.”
Jens Hachmeister, head of issuer services and new digital markets at Clearstream, adds: “Together with our partners, Clearstream is bridging traditional and digital assets to build a more efficient, future-proof market.
“By enabling seamless access to tokenised securities in a regulated environment, we are expanding the choices for investors and paving the way for a more integrated financial ecosystem.”
