SEC reportedly introduces temporary exemption for tokenized stock trading

A September 21, 2026 roundup says the SEC introduced a temporary “Innovation Exemption” allowing certain tokenized securities venues to facilitate permissioned on-chain trading of eligible U.S. stocks, subject to investor-protection requirements, trading limits and transparency rules.

The post also says Ondo Finance subsidiary Oasis Pro Markets became the first tokenization platform to join DTCC’s Fund/SERV.

Elsewhere, it says the UK’s FCA is seeking input on whether tokenized gold could improve how physical gold is traded, transferred, pledged and held in wholesale markets, with consultation open until October 23, 2026. It describes Hong Kong’s Project Ensemble as testing tokenized deposits and digital assets for real-value transactions and potential 24/7 settlement infrastructure.
