By operating under this framework, Taurus bridges its crypto-native infrastructure with traditional capital market regulations, reinforcing its position as a trusted partner for major financial institutions like Deutsche Bank and Santander. Co-founder Sébastien Dessimoz noted that this status provides the regulatory certainty and onshore presence preferred by European banking clients.
