Additionally, think tank manages the provision and operation of regulatory-compliant IT environments for 21X exchange customers, as well as offering advice on wider business and IT strategy – particularly relating to MaRisk, BAIT and DORA financial services operational resilience regulations.
Max J. Heinzle, founder and CEO of 21X, said: „We recognize that for a company to meet all the necessary national and international regulatory requirements for the listing of digital assets is a significant undertaking. This is why we are pleased that these companies – whether seeking a primary or secondary listing – will be able to work with think tank, our digital services consulting partner, to guide them through all the relevant aspects of a listing. I am sure that this will make bringing digital assets to market a simpler and swifter process.“
