Securitize to buy River One to enter $6 trillion asset-backed lending market

Securitize agrees to buy River One

Securitize, a platform that tokenizes traditional assets, announced an agreement to acquire River One, ForkLog reported on 10 November 2026. The company said the purchase is intended to take it into asset-backed financing, where credit is secured by assets such as receivables, property or fund holdings.

The announcement did not include the purchase price or other financial terms. Securitize said it expects the transaction to close in the fourth quarter.

What the deal is meant to do

Securitize described the asset-backed financing market as worth $6 trillion. It said the acquisition would combine real-world assets, or RWA, with lending, including through capital held in stablecoins.

Tokenization means recording a claim on an asset on a blockchain so ownership can be tracked and transferred digitally. RWA refers to claims on assets that exist off-chain, such as credit, real estate or funds. Stablecoins are tokens designed to hold a steady value against a national currency.

The report did not break down the $6 trillion figure or say how Securitize arrived at it. It also gave no details of River One's own business, finances or customer base, and did not say whether the acquisition needs regulatory approval.

Quarterly revenue up 13%

Alongside the deal, Securitize reported that its quarterly revenue rose 13%, to $18.6 million. The report did not specify which quarter the figure covers or give a profit number.

Neither the price of the acquisition nor the point at which Securitize expects it to affect revenue has been disclosed.
