The Bank of Russia has put Atomyze Russia - a distributed ledger-based ecosystem that deals with tokenization of physical assets - as the first company on the register of the operators of information systems for DFAs in Russia.

The regulator has recognised the rules of the company's information system and the technical solution of the platform as compliant with the effective laws. The harmonization of the regulations and Atomyze Russia's entry into the register allows it, in partnership with Rosbank, to provide customers with the opportunity to issue DFA on its platform and issue new types of financial instruments, such as tokens.

«Nowadays in Russia, new opportunities are emerging for issuers and investors, and unique prospects are opening up for users of digital services. We are glad to support, as the sole partner, the first project on the Russian market, which creates a blockchain infrastructure for the issuance and circulation of digital financial assets. We see great prospects in this direction. All issuers and holders of DFAs are required to be identified on the platform of the operating company. Rosbank will ensure the processing of personal data and will provide a delegated identification service for individuals,» - said Ilya Polyakov, Rosbank CEO.

«The Atomyze ecosystem, licensed by the regulator, is based on the blockchain and allows for the tokenization of financial assets. Transfer of funds and identification of our platform's users in Russia will be carried out by Rosbank, a reliable banking partner, part of the international financial services Societe Generale Group,» - stressed Ekaterina Frolovicheva, Director of Atomyze in Russia.
