Answers · Buy a stock as a token

Can I buy iShares MSCI Brazil ETF (EWZ) as a token — and from which issuers?

Short answer

Yes — iShares MSCI Brazil ETF exists as a token from 4 issuers in our data: EWZx (Backed), EWZ.RP (BG El Salvador, S.A. de C.V.), EWZon (Ondo Global Markets), EWZ.BP (Trek Nexus Markets Ltd), on 4 chains (Solana, Ethereum, Arbitrum, BNB Chain). 1 is for accredited or professional investors only. None registers a iShares MSCI Brazil ETF unit in your own name — you hold a claim on the issuer, so the issuer’s structure and terms matter as much as the stock.

iShares MSCI Brazil ETF units exist as tokens from many issuers. They are not the same product: some are tracker certificates backed by a share held in custody, some are claims on a special-purpose vehicle, some are derivatives inside a broker’s app, and one or two are issued by a transfer agent on behalf of the company. They also differ in chain, in who the issuer says it offers them to, and in whether you need KYC to buy. The table lists every version we have; each row links to its own page with the issuer’s source.

More questions

Is a EWZ token the same as owning iShares MSCI Brazil ETF units?

No. A token tracks the price, but the legal claim is on the token’s issuer — a tracker certificate, an SPV share, or a derivative — not a unit in your name with a broker. Voting rights are usually not passed on; dividends are paid out, reinvested or not passed on depending on the issuer.

Where can I trade EWZ tokens?

Depends on the issuer: some trade on decentralised exchanges on their chain, some only inside the issuer’s or a partner exchange’s app. Each token’s page in the table names where it trades.

Which of them can I buy without KYC?

None of them is stated as buyable without KYC.
