Computershare, a leading global stock transfer agent and partner of many S&P 500 companies, has officially announced a deep partnership with digital asset platform Securitize, formally entering the stock tokenization arena to help US-listed companies issue on-chain stock tokens. The two companies will launch Issuer-Supported Tokens (ISTs), which US-listed companies can issue on demand. Investors holding on-chain tokenized shares will seamlessly enjoy the same voting rights, legal protections, and shareholder benefits as traditional shareholders, achieving a compliant integration of traditional equity with the blockchain ecosystem.
