The Russian VTB will provide customers with access to digital financial assets (CFP), integrating the tool into the mobile application interface before the end of the year, the head of the Bank of the Bank, Sergei Ryabov, said the head of the TsFA Directorate.

According to the top manager, the bank is now working in the B2B market, releasing corporate deposits in the form of the Central Bank. But the next step is the expansion of the functionality for retail customers.

“By the end of the year, the Tsfa will integrate into retail sales channels and will act as a kind of matchmaker for investors and issuers, giving them the opportunity to invest both in the quasi -deposit stories of the bank and in the issues of other issuers. I believe that one of the first and main paths for the Tsfa is integration into the usual interfaces, ”Ryabkov explained.

The second largest Russian State Bank is going to offer investors to invest in the TsFA through a mobile application. VTB seeks not only to open access to customers to the new class of assets, but also to take on the role of the infrastructure aggregator of the entire market segment, the top manager said.

Earlier, the Russian Central Bank proposed to increase the annual limit for unskilled investors for the purchase of the Central Bank from 600,000 to 1 million rubles.
