BankPozitif, a leading digital bank in Turkey, has partnered with Swiss firm Taurus to provide institutional-grade cryptocurrency safekeeping services. This move places BankPozitif at the forefront of Turkey's rapidly growing digital asset sector, as fintech adoption surges across the country. The bank will integrate Taurus-PROTECT?, a safekeeping platform for cryptocurrencies and tokenised assets, along with Taurus-EXPLORER?, which enables blockchain connectivity.
Chairman Dr Erkan Kork highlighted Turkey's expanding banking sector, now worth 30 trillion liras, and the increasing demand for digital asset services. The partnership aligns with BankPozitif's focus on innovation and digital transformation, reinforcing its commitment to staying ahead in the evolving financial landscape.
Taurus, which already collaborates with financial giants like Deutsche Bank and State Street, sees Turkey as a key market for the adoption of digital assets. With strong institutional interest and a constructive regulatory environment, the partnership signals a broader trend of traditional banks embracing crypto services to meet growing demand.
