Many traditional financial institutions are held back from investing in digital asset projects due to the lack of clarity and consistency of regulation all around the world. With recent developments starting with Markets in Crypto Assets Regulation (MiCA) in the EU entering into force in June 2023, more and more traditional financial institutions are dipping their toes into the digital assets space. Considering the fast-paced developments in DeFi, XYZ Teknoloji created a vital software stack on top of Fireblocks, the leading digital asset operations and direct custody technology provider in the world, to enable frictionless integration of digital assets and related business models to the traditional banking infrastructure.

Focusing on Turkey initially, XYZ Teknoloji has built critical features like: core banking integration capabilities, a virtual balance mechanism for instant digital asset transfers, built-in operational cost minimization techniques by introducing the concept of "withdrawal strategies", the ability to launch a real-world asset tokenization marketplace and finally the capability to launch a customizable digital asset-based index funds, which are all compatible with the Fireblock full on-premise solution. Fireblocks' unique capabilities in creating compliant infrastructures with the specialized software stack of XYZ Teknoloji will allow Turkish financial institutions to bring digital asset-based products to the market in a time-efficient manner.

XYZ Teknoloji Co-Founder, Kazım Rıfat Özyılmaz, states: "By working closely together with an industry giant like Fireblocks, we are focused on addressing the time-to-market needs of licensed financial institutions that are finally entering to the digital asset space."

Stephen Richardson, Managing Director, Financial Markets at Fireblocks, adds, "XYZ Teknoloji's suite of software allows regulated financial institutions in Turkey to bring digital asset products to market quickly and safely. By leveraging Fireblocks' battle-tested technology, XYZ Teknoloji built highly-secure and transformative offerings for the Turkish market and we are thrilled to support their efforts."
