Appoint Securitize as a Whitelister to Aave Arc

Securitize is the leading digital asset securities company. As a FINRA member Broker-Dealer and the first SEC-registered Transfer Agent operating with digital asset securities, Securitize is one of the most regulated firms in the entire digital assets industry.

Securitize has an excellent track record for providing comprehensive compliance services to a vast array of digital assets companies. Our proprietary investor passport, Securitize iD, is globally recognized and built upon Securitize’s battle-tested KYC/KYB/AML/CFT compliance program, allowing Securitize iD to be trusted by almost 400K registered investors and over 200 issuers to date.

Securitize is backed by top investors 2 from both traditional and digital finance; our backers include blue-chip financial institutions like Morgan Stanley, Banco Santander, MUFG and Nomura Securities, as well as the leading digital asset and blockchain investors, such as Blockchain Capital, Coinbase Ventures, Ripple, Borderless Capital, Blockchain.com Ventures, Ava Labs, Kenetic and Fenbushi. We are bringing together traditional and digital asset stakeholders from across the globe.

Securitize asks the Aave Governance community to appoint Securitize as a whitelister for one of more deployments of Aave Arc based on the following criteria:

• Highly regulated entity with years of digital assets compliance experience.
• Existing Securitize iD product already provides KYC/KYB/AML/CFT services to almost 400K investors through Ethereum, Avalanche and Algorand wallet integrations, with Polygon coming soon.
• Distributed version of Securitize iD based on blockchain attestations was created to preserve the decentralized nature and integrity of DeFi protocols.
• Full satisfaction of whitelister requirements set forth in the Aave Arc white paper.
