Securitize Capital secures SEC investment adviser registration after operating as exempt reporting adviser

Securitize Capital LLC previously operated as an exempt reporting adviser and now faces added disclosure, compliance, recordkeeping and examination obligations under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940. The move adds an SEC-registered adviser to Securitize's U.S. affiliates, which include a registered broker-dealer and ATS, transfer agent, and fund administration arm. CEO Carlos Domingo said the registration strengthens the firm's ability to help institutions manage onchain investment strategies. The announcement follows a July 22 SEC statement by Commissioner Hester Peirce noting certain crypto vaults and lending strategies may implicate investment-adviser rules.
