SEC Chair: Proposing Innovation Hub to Allow Limited Trading of Tokenized Securities

2 hours ago

March 12 – U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) Chairman Paul S. Atkins announced the Commission will vote on proposals related to equity tokenization. As I’ve noted before, I expect the SEC will soon consider a targeted innovation exemption to enable limited trading of specific tokenized securities—while working to build a long-term regulatory framework. I remain open to feedback on crafting this potential exemption, which would be time- and scope-limited but with a timeline long enough to let us develop more permanent rules that fully unlock the potential of these new technologies.
