Dinari and tZERO have partnered to create an operating framework that would allow broker dealers to offer tokenized US equities through a single integration.

The partnership combines Dinari’s dShares technology with tZERO’s regulated brokerage, custody, clearing, settlement and shareholder servicing infrastructure. The companies said the goal is to give broker dealers a simpler path to launching tokenized equity products for their own customers.

Dinari’s dShares are tokenized representations of public market securities that are backed one to one by the underlying stocks or ETFs, with the assets held in custody by a registered US broker dealer.

Dinari says the structure is designed to preserve core equity investing features, including cash dividends, corporate actions and redemption tied to the underlying security.

The companies said the collaboration will support features including round the clock trading for eligible tokenized equities, fractional execution, stablecoin enabled settlement and dividend processing, automated corporate actions, proxy support and flexible custody models.
