 Major milestone achieved for AQRU.io platform with £16.5m under management for 10,000 customer accounts

 

AQRU plc (AQSE: AQRU), an incubator specialising in decentralised finance ("DeFi"), is pleased to announce that its wholly owned subsidiary, Accru Finance Ltd. ("Accru Finance"), has signed up over 10,000 customer accounts and reached £16.5 million in assets under management on its proprietary cryptocurrency yield-generating platform, AQRU.io, a significant milestone in the Company's growth.

 

The milestone was achieved on 31 March 2022, only four months after Accru Finance launched its platform to cryptocurrency investors in certain jurisdictions in Europe and other international markets in December 2021. AQRU.io is an online trading platform that allows users to easily convert their fiat currency, such as EUR and GBP, into cryptocurrencies and invest their assets through the different protocols and investment strategies available on the platform to generate attractive yields. Since its launch, AQRU.io has received significant demand from investors, and the platform is currently signing up an average of more than 200 users per day.

 

Last week Accru Finance announced a partnership with Maple Finance, an institutional lending platform, to integrate Maple's yield-generating services into the AQRU.io platform. The partnership will allow Accru Finance to broaden its range of yield generating strategies and investment opportunities that users of the platform can choose from depending on their risk and return profile.

 

Philip Blows, CEO of AQRU, commented: "Since launching our investment platform just four months ago, we have enabled thousands of active investors to join and take advantage of the benefits that DeFi has to offer. As decentralised finance grows, we expect to see increasing demand for platforms that offer users with an easy-to-use and secure way to access the decentralised market. We are confident that our AQRU.io platform will continue to be investors' preferred choice, allowing us to maintain an excellent growth rate and strengthening our position in the DeFi sector."

 

The Directors of AQRU plc take responsibility for this announcement.
