DeFi Technologies Inc. (the "Company" or "DeFi Technologies"), a financial technology company bridging the gap between traditional capital markets and decentralized finance ("DeFi"), is pleased to announce that its subsidiary Valour Inc. ("Valour"), a leading issuer of exchange-traded products ("ETPs") providing simplified access to digital assets, has partnered with GulfCap Investment Bank ("GCIB") as its key Transaction Advisor for the proposed cross-listing of Valour's ETPs on the Nairobi Securities Exchange ("NSE").

This strategic engagement marks a significant milestone in Valour's mission to expand regulated access to digital assets in emerging markets. With a robust suite of over 65 fully hedged digital asset ETPs already listed across major European exchanges—including Xetra (Germany), Spotlight (Sweden), and Euronext (Paris and Amsterdam)—Valour aims to bring secure and simplified exposure to digital assets to Kenyan investors.

GCIB, a licensed investment bank by Kenya's Capital Markets Authority ("CMA"), will lead the transaction advisory process. Their mandate includes end-to-end support for the cross-listing, covering regulatory coordination, due diligence, documentation, investor engagement, and listing execution in line with NSE and CMA frameworks.
