The collaboration grants Continental’s clients direct access to a regulated digital securities stack, including Securitize’s proprietary transfer agent technology and automated investor accreditation workflows. For Continental, which has served as a fixture in corporate transaction processing for over 60 years, the partnership acts as a bridge for traditional issuers looking to modernize ownership records and capital markets operations without abandoning the high-touch service model that defines their reputation.

Securitize, currently navigating a business combination with Cantor Equity Partners II, will leverage its status as an SEC-registered transfer agent and broker-dealer to support the initiative. The relationship is already in action: Continental is serving as the transfer agent for the CEPT shareholder meeting and is slated to act as the exchange agent for the resulting public company, which intends to list on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker SECZ. This agreement signals a strategic shift for both firms as they seek to embed digital asset solutions into the mainstream financial ecosystem.
