No. Tokenised stocks are not the same as a direct equity investment in any of the underlying stocks or companies to which they are economically linked. Tokenised stocks reflect the economic exposure to certain publicly-traded equities and exchange-traded funds. Holders of tokenised stocks have no voting rights, no dividend entitlements, and no legal claims to the underlying company shares or any residual assets in the event of the underlying company’s liquidation. An investment in any tokenised stock does not entitle holders to receive any information from the respective issuer or sponsor of the underlying stocks or shares.
The respective issuer or sponsor of the underlying stocks is not involved in the offer and sale of the tokenised stocks and is under no obligation to you. Therefore, tokenised stocks are not sponsored, supported or promoted in any way by the respective issuer or sponsor of the underlying stocks, and the respective issuer or sponsor of the underlying stocks may take actions regarding the underlying stocks without considering the interests of the tokenised stock holder. Holders of tokenised stocks will be unlikely to have any opportunity to influence decisions affecting the underlying stocks.
