How the Adoption System Performs “Care” (And Hides the Truth)

ApexInvest Markets LLC ("ApexInvest Markets"), the U.S. broker-dealer and alternative trading system (ATS) of Apex Group Ltd. ("Apex Group"), today announced it has received approval from the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA) to transact in digital securities, expanding its ability to support the issuance, distribution and secondary trading of digital and tokenized securities. The approval also enables ApexInvest Markets to chaperone non-U.S. broker-dealers under SEC Rule 15a-6, supporting cross-border access to U.S. institutional investors. The approval enables ApexInvest Markets to facilitate capital formation, primary distribution and secondary market activity within a regulated framework. The expanded remit supports issuers, asset managers and institutional investors seeking access to private market opportunities through tokenized investment structures. Issuers working with ApexInvest Markets may also choose to leverage Tokeny, Apex Group's tokenization platform, through Apex Digital, Apex Group's digital infrastructure business, to issue, manage and service tokenized investment products. Built on the ERC-3643 standard, the platform enables compliance and investor eligibility requirements to be embedded directly within smart contracts. "This approval marks an important milestone for ApexInvest Markets and expands the range of services we can provide to participants in digital markets," said Greg Cignarella, Head of Business Development at ApexInvest Markets. "As tokenization gains traction across private markets, issuers and investors are looking for trusted partners that can combine regulatory oversight, market access and operational expertise. This approval strengthens our ability to support clients throughout the investment lifecycle while deepening Apex Group's integrated digital asset offering." The approval further strengthens Apex Group's integrated digital asset offering, spanning tokenization infrastructure, broker-dealer services, capital formation, liquidity solutions and ongoing asset servicing.

The bank is bringing its roughly $100 billion Treasury fund to institutional crypto firms without creating a tokenized version of it.
