European regulator says tokenised stocks risk ’investor misunderstanding’ By Elizabeth Howcroft PARIS (Reuters) -Blockchain-based assets which provide exposure to equities could lead to "investor misunderstanding", as they typically do not make the buyer a shareholder in the underlying company, the European Union’s securities watchdog said on Monday. So-called tokenised stocks are a type of blockchain-based asset which are linked to the price of a share in a public company. Broker Robinhood has launched tokenised stocks in the EU while crypto exchange Coinbase is also making a push into the nascent sector. The European Securities and Markets Authority (ESMA) executive director, Natasha Cazenave, said at a conference in Dubrovnik that several fintech firms had developed offerings that give investors exposure to listed shares or blockchain-based derivatives backed by corporate stock that is held through special purpose vehicles. She did not name individual companies. "These tokenised instruments can provide always-on access and fractionalisation but typically do not confer shareholder rights," Cazenave said in a speech published on ESMA’s website. "...this can create a specific risk of investor misunderstanding and underlines the need for clear communication and safeguards," she said. ESMA’s concerns echo the World Federation of Exchanges, which last week called on securities regulators to clamp down on tokenised stocks, saying that they create new risks for investors and could harm market integrity. Crypto enthusiasts say tokenisation will change the underlying infrastructure of financial markets, by allowing assets such as bank deposits, stocks, bonds, funds and even real estate to be traded as blockchain-based tokens. 3rd party Ad.

Cazenave said tokenisation could bring efficiency gains but "most tokenisation initiatives remain small and largely illiquid" so far. Is COIN part of an AI-powered winning strategy?

Stock exchanges urge regulators to crack down on ’tokenised stocks’ By Elizabeth Howcroft (Reuters) -A group representing the world’s biggest stock exchanges is urging securities regulators to clamp down on so-called tokenised stocks, arguing that the blockchain-based tokens create new risks for investors and risk damaging market integrity. Tokenised equities are blockchain-based tokens created to represent shares in companies. The tokens represent ownership of the securities but investors do not become shareholders in the underlying company. Crypto exchange Coinbase (NASDAQ:COIN) and broker Robinhood (NASDAQ:HOOD) are among those making a push into the nascent sector that could shake up the securities investing landscape. Proponents say tokenised equities can cut trading costs, speed up settlement and facilitate around-the-clock trading. In a letter to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission’s Crypto Task Force, the European Securities and Market Authority, and IOSCO’s Fintech Task Force, the World Federation of Exchanges (WFE) said it was concerned the tokens "mimic" equities without providing the same rights or trading safeguards. "We are alarmed at the plethora of brokers and crypto-trading platforms offering or intending to offer so-called tokenised U.S. stocks," the WFE, a UK-based industry association for exchanges and clearing houses, said. "These products are marketed as stock tokens or the equivalent to stocks when they are not." The WFE declined to name which brokers and trading platforms it was referring to. Issuers of stock - the companies whose stock is being mimicked - could suffer reputational damage if the tokens fail, the WFE said. 3rd party Ad. Not an offer or recommendation by Investing.com. See disclosure here or remove ads. The WFE’s position reflects the concerns of market infrastructure players and the broader financial sector, WFE CEO Nandini Sukumar told Reuters, adding that some share issuers had expressed concerns to their exchanges. Regulators should apply securities rules to tokenised assets, clarify legal frameworks for ownership and custody, and prevent them being marketed as equivalent to stocks, WFE said. An SEC commissioner said in July tokenised securities must still meet securities regulations. Coinbase is seeking permission from the SEC to offer tokenised equities to its customers, Reuters reported in June.
