Company Description
Aurelion Inc. (NASDAQ: AURE) is a regulated digital wealth firm listed on the Nasdaq Stock Market that focuses on tokenized gold and digital asset–linked wealth management. According to the company’s public statements, Aurelion is Nasdaq’s first Tether Gold (XAU₮) real‑world asset (RWA) company and Tether Gold treasury, combining the stability of physical gold with the efficiency of blockchain technology. Through its tokenized gold reserves, Aurelion aims to provide investors with access to gold‑backed digital assets that can help preserve value amid inflation, currency devaluation, and digital asset volatility.
Aurelion is based in Hong Kong and operates as a foreign private issuer under the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934, filing reports on Form 20‑F and Form 6‑K. The company’s principal business centers on holding and managing reserves of Tether Gold (XAU₮), a digital asset where each token represents one troy fine ounce of gold on a London Good Delivery bar, available as an ERC‑20 token on the Ethereum blockchain. Aurelion describes itself as Nasdaq’s first Tether Gold treasury, reflecting a corporate focus on gold‑backed digital reserves that can be verified on‑chain.
The company’s evolution includes a corporate renaming and strategic shift. Aurelion Inc. completed its renaming from Prestige Wealth Inc., which previously traded on Nasdaq under the symbol PWM. Following shareholder approvals, the company’s name was changed to Aurelion Inc., and its Class A ordinary shares began trading under the ticker AURE on Nasdaq. In connection with this transition, Aurelion entered into significant financing arrangements, including a private placement and a senior debt facility, to acquire Tether Gold and establish what it describes as Nasdaq’s first Tether Gold treasury.
In its public disclosures, Aurelion states that it has purchased a substantial amount of Tether Gold (XAU₮) to serve as its treasury reserve asset. The company indicates that it combines physical gold backing with blockchain‑based transparency, with the goal of providing the public and institutions access to tokenized gold that could function as a safe haven relative to inflation, currency risk, and volatility in digital assets. Aurelion also notes that it plans to lend its unencumbered Tether Gold holdings to its parent company, Antalpha Platform Holding Company (NASDAQ: ANTA), as collateral and receive a technology fee in return, with Antalpha assuming default risk on funding derived from that collateral.
Alongside its tokenized gold treasury activities, Aurelion continues to provide wealth management and asset management services. Earlier descriptions of the business indicate that the company and its subsidiaries have been engaged in private wealth management and asset management for high‑net‑worth and ultra‑high‑net‑worth individuals. This has included identifying and purchasing wealth management products offered by third‑party providers and working with licensed product brokers in Hong Kong, particularly insurance brokers distributing insurance products, to help customize investment portfolios. The company has stated that it generates revenue for its subsidiaries’ wealth management business from product brokers in the form of referral fees, calculated based on the value of wealth management products purchased by clients from such brokers.
Aurelion’s more recent disclosures emphasize its role as a Tether Gold–backed treasury and digital wealth platform. The company describes itself as offering investors a modern gateway to safe‑haven assets through tokenized gold reserves, highlighting the combination of blockchain transparency and the long‑standing role of gold as a store of value. By positioning its treasury around Tether Gold, Aurelion seeks to align with investor interest in asset‑backed tokens and regulated digital markets that facilitate 24/7 movement and verification of holdings.
Aurelion has also undertaken capital markets activities to support its strategy. The company has filed a shelf registration statement on Form F‑3 with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, which was declared effective, and subsequently entered into an at‑the‑market equity offering sales agreement. Under this arrangement, Aurelion may, at its discretion, offer and sell Class A ordinary shares up to a specified aggregate amount through designated sales agents in transactions deemed to be “at the market offerings” under SEC rules. The company is not obligated to sell shares under this program and has indicated that any such sales would be made pursuant to its effective registration statement and related prospectus supplement.
Corporate governance and capital structure changes have accompanied Aurelion’s strategic repositioning. Shareholders approved an increase in authorized share capital for both Class A and Class B ordinary shares and a change in the voting power of Class B shares, as well as the adoption of amended and restated constitutional documents to reflect the new name and capital structure. The company has also adopted a share incentive plan and has reported changes in its board committees, including reconstitution of its audit and nominating and corporate governance committees.
In addition, Aurelion has reported issuing a Class A ordinary share purchase warrant to a non‑affiliated service provider as consideration for strategic consulting services focused on the further growth and expansion of its wealth management business and digital asset treasury. The warrant grants the right to purchase a specified number of Class A ordinary shares at a fixed exercise price over a multi‑year period, illustrating the company’s use of equity‑linked instruments in compensating external advisors.
Through these developments, Aurelion presents itself as a company at the intersection of traditional wealth management and blockchain‑based tokenized gold. Its disclosures emphasize regulated listing status on Nasdaq, a focus on Tether Gold reserves as a treasury asset, and the continuation of wealth and asset management services, particularly in connection with third‑party wealth management products and Hong Kong–based product brokers.
Business model and activities
Based on its public descriptions, Aurelion’s business model has two main components. First, it operates a Tether Gold–backed treasury, holding Tether Gold tokens that represent physical gold and using those holdings as a core reserve asset. The company has indicated that it plans to lend unencumbered Tether Gold to its parent company as collateral and receive a technology fee, with the parent assuming default risk on lending activities involving that collateral.
Second, Aurelion conducts private wealth management and asset management activities. The company has described a model in which its subsidiary works with licensed product brokers in Hong Kong, currently consisting of insurance brokers distributing insurance products, and assists in customizing wealth management investment portfolios for clients. Revenue from this segment is generated in the form of referral fees from product brokers, calculated based on the value of wealth management products purchased by clients from those brokers.
Regulatory and listing context
Aurelion files reports with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission as a foreign private issuer and is listed on the Nasdaq Stock Market under the symbol AURE. It has utilized SEC registration on Form F‑3 to support potential capital raising through an at‑the‑market equity offering program. The company’s filings also document corporate actions such as name change approvals, capital increases, share consolidation authorization, and adoption of a share incentive plan.
