DeFi Technologies' subsidiary Valour Inc. has partnered with GulfCap Investment Bank (GCIB) to cross-list its digital asset ETPs on the Nairobi Securities Exchange (NSE). This strategic move will enable Kenyan investors to access Valour's suite of over 65 digital asset ETPs in local currency, which are currently trading on major European exchanges including Xetra, Spotlight, and Euronext.
GCIB, licensed by Kenya's Capital Markets Authority, will serve as the Transaction Advisor, overseeing regulatory coordination, due diligence, documentation, and investor engagement. The initiative aims to expand regulated access to digital assets in emerging markets while ensuring compliance with local regulatory frameworks.
