Key Highlights
Ondo Finance has enabled proxy voting rights for holders of its tokenized equity products, a first for a platform of its scale in the tokenized real-world asset space.
The feature is built in partnership with Broadridge, the financial infrastructure firm that already processes proxy voting for a large share of traditional equity markets.
Ondo's tokenized equity products collectively hold around $700 million in assets under management.
Ondo Finance has brought proxy voting to its tokenized equity holders through a partnership with Broadridge Financial Solutions, giving on-chain investors a governance right that has historically existed only for holders of traditional brokerage accounts.
The integration uses Broadridge's existing proxy voting infrastructure, which already handles shareholder votes for a significant portion of U.S.-listed equities. Holders of Ondo's tokenized stock products can now participate in corporate votes without converting back to traditional securities or routing through a custodian.
Broadridge has been building on-chain voting infrastructure across several tokenized asset platforms, with Galaxy Digital also using the service for its own shareholder vote earlier this year. The Ondo integration represents the largest deployment of the capability by assets under management to date.
Ondo's tokenized equity suite currently holds around $700 million, making it one of the larger real-world asset platforms outside of tokenized treasuries. The addition of voting rights addresses a longstanding gap in tokenized equities, where holders owned economic exposure but lacked the governance entitlements attached to the underlying shares.
