Taurus secures "Best Digital Assets Solution" at 2024 Global BankTech Awards
Swiss Fintech commended for secure custody, asset tokenization services, and its marketplace for digital assets
LONDON, UK and GENEVA, SWITZERLAND / ACCESSWIRE / September 19, 2024 - Taurus, the Swiss-regulated global leader in digital asset infrastructure for banks, has been named "Best Digital Assets Solution" at the prestigious Global BankTech Awards 2024 - the premier awards programme for the fintech industry.
Taurus has been recognized for its comprehensive and modular infrastructure that enables financial institutions to issue, custody, and trade digital assets, including tokenized assets, cryptos, NFTs, and digital currencies.
"Taurus offers enterprise-level digital asset infrastructure for the issuance, custody, and trading of all digital assets, encompassing cryptocurrencies, tokenized securities, and digital currencies," said Mobasher Kazmi, Head of Research for The Digital Banker. "Commendably, its suite of products comprising Taurus-PROTECT™ for secure custody, Taurus-CAPITAL™ for asset tokenization and management, Taurus-EXPLORER™ for blockchain node infrastructure, and TDX™, a marketplace for digital assets, allowing users to capture any digital asset opportunity under one, unified platform."
"Digital assets and tokenization represent a once-in-a-generation opportunity for the financial industry, but a lack of enterprise-grade digital infrastructure initially prevented many institutions from jumping on board the revolution," said Juergen Hofbauer, global head of Strategic Partnerships at Taurus. "Taurus is solving the challenges of security, compliance, and interoperability for some of the biggest banks on the planet, so we're delighted that our hard work has been recognized by Global BankTech Awards."
Taurus' infrastructure is backed by major financial institutions, including Deutsche Bank, UBS, and numerous others. In the past 12 months, Taurus has played a leading role in developing new asset classes, including SMEs equity and debt, which are tokenized leveraging the Taurus infrastructure and admitted for trading on the TDX marketplace. Most recently, Taurus announced a partnership with State Street - the global provider of financial services to institutional investors, with $44.3 trillion in assets under custody - to streamline the creation and management of tokenized assets throughout their lifecycle.
