Despite the difficulties of coordinating development while managing teams remotely, Black Tie Digital has managed to rise above the obstacles.
Black Tie Digital's success can be attributed to two key factors. Firstly, the company is a believer in digital
ledger technology, rather than just an enthusiast. They strive to find lasting, viable solutions and look for

Secondly, the Black Tie Digital team comprises a collective of digital natives with a strong desire for change and a passion for innovation. This mindset has enabled them to operate with the adaptability and entrepreneurial spirit of a startup. Moreover, as part of PIM, they can leverage decades of industry-leading experience across the three sectors in which Black Tie operates in. The company has sizable resources at its disposal, which allows them to be selective in the projects they choose to take on. Black Tie Digital is motivated by success and acts as a change agent, rather than solely pursuing financial gain.
In conclusion, Black Tie Digital's commitment to finding lasting, viable solutions and their entrepreneurial
spirit has positioned them as leaders in the digital ledger technology space. Their ability to adapt

partner in the ever-evolving world of digital assets.
ENHANCING CUSTOMER EXPERIENCE AND TECHNIQUES
IN DIGITAL ASSET MANAGEMENT
Deposit Solutions, a subsidiary of an investment management firm, aimed to provide alternative funding
mechanisms for digital assets such as cryptocurrency. However, they found that their current market offerings lacked flexibility and had demanding collateral requirements. To address this issue, Black Tie leveraged its contacts and collaborated with several private capital sources to establish a unique hybrid
lending platform. This platform offers lower initial collateral requirements, shorter loan terms and durations, and the ability to generate dual-phase financing.
Black Tie Digital's hybrid dual-face financing program enables consumers to leverage the benefits of multiple lenders to use digital assets to enter the real estate market. This program allows borrowers to customize their lending interfaces, escrow and commitments, and digital asset conversions. With this solution, customers can place themselves in homes more quickly and have better access to diversifying their portfolio with real estate than ever before.
As for their second use case, Black Tie Digital is currently beta-testing many of its products. However,
they have already collaborated with one of the largest Australian real estate firms to create a customized
fund management platform that guarantees regulatory compliance for all end-users. This platform also allows complete customization in digital assets and conversions, escrow and commitments, and lending interfaces. Black Tie Digital's innovative response to the problem of no one else doing it has helped enhance the customer experience in digital asset management.
