BEE4, a Brazil-based financial technology organization, has recently revealed that it would be rolling out a brand new local tokenized stock marketplace, running on the ETH-based Quorum network that users will leverage to tokenize their public offerings.
According to the official statement, the local marketplace will be offering an open bid book, a trading floor, and auctions, as well as the possibility for its customers to purchase and sell orders. Patricia Stille, CEO of BEE4, mentioned that BEE4 aims to provide general investors more access to investments in startups.
