PSB and Bank ROSSIYA have agreed to cooperate in the field of CFA

PSB and Bank ROSSIYA have signed an agreement on cooperation in the field of digital rights and digital currencies. The document was signed within the framework of SPIEF 2026 and is aimed at forming a technological partnership for the development and implementation of modern financial solutions based on digital technologies.

The document was signed by Olga Myamlina, Deputy Chairman of the PSB, and Artem Shatalov, Adviser to the Chairman of the Board of the Bank of RUSSIA. The banks are planning joint projects in the field of digital financial instruments, launching pilot initiatives and developing new approaches to the use of digital currencies and CFAs, the PSB explained. The key technology partner is the Tokeon platform (part of the PSB group).

"We will combine infrastructure capabilities and practical experience to create digital tools and services in demand by customers. Special attention will be paid to the development of mechanisms for the issuance and circulation of digital rights, as well as the integration of new solutions into existing banking products," Myamlina said.

She recalled that the Tokeon platform was the first in Russia to tokenize foreign digital law, issue hybrid digital financial assets, and have a public credit rating. "These competencies allow us not to follow the market, but to determine the vectors of its development," Myamlina emphasized.

"Together with our partners, we will create application scenarios for working with digital rights and digital currencies that will be in demand by corporate clients in the near future," Shatalov commented. He added that the participation of the Tokeon platform, which has the first investment-grade credit rating on the market, serves as an additional guarantee of the reliability of the entire infrastructure being developed.

Igor Egorkin, CEO of Tokeon, said that there is a steady demand from business for modern financing and settlement tools and added: "Our task as a technology partner is to provide market participants with a reliable, scalable and regulatory—compliant infrastructure for working with digital assets."
