Today's XRP news: $370 million asset management firm ORQO Group will build a yield platform for Ripple RLUSD stablecoin.

The emerging asset management company ORQO Group (with assets under management of $370 million) officially launched on September 16 and announced plans to build the yield platform Soil for Ripple's RLUSD stablecoin, aiming to tokenize real-world assets (RWA) and combine them with stablecoin yields, opening up a new capital appreciation channel for institutional investors.

ORQO Group: A Fusion of Traditional Finance + Blockchain

The ORQO Group, headquartered in Abu Dhabi, is composed of four interdisciplinary entities:

· Mount TFI (Poland): Private Debt Management and Licensed Fund Manager

· Monterra Capital (Malta): Multi-strategy digital asset hedge fund

· Nextrope: Blockchain Engineering Studio

· Soil Protocol: DeFi protocol compliant with the EU MiCA framework

Currently, ORQO has obtained licenses in Poland and Malta, and is applying for permission from the Abu Dhabi Global Market (ADGM) Financial Services Regulatory Authority, planning to make the Middle East a core growth market for regulated digital assets.

Revenue Platform Soil: RWA + stablecoin Yield Engine

The yield platform Soil of ORQO is a core component of its strategy, designed to connect risk-weighted assets (RWA) pipelines with the crypto capital markets, generating yields for stablecoin deposits through the tokenization of the following asset classes:

· Personal Lending

· Real Estate

· Hedge Fund Strategies

In the next phase, ORQO plans to establish multiple credit pools for Ripple RLUSD stablecoin holders, allowing institutional treasuries, protocol reserves, and other investors to earn returns directly from their held assets.

RWA tokenization market has huge potential

RWA (real-world asset) tokenization is a popular trend in the fusion of crypto and traditional finance.

Market Situation: According to data from rwa.xyz, the RWA market size has approached 30 billion USD.

Growth Forecast: A joint report by Ripple and BCG predicts that by 2033, the RWA tokenization market could reach $18.9 trillion.

Strategic significance: Tokenizing traditional assets such as private credit, U.S. Treasury bonds, and trade financing can significantly enhance liquidity and investment efficiency.

ORQO CEO Nicholas Motz stated, “We have the complete elements for off-chain and on-chain asset management, which presents an excellent opportunity to become a global on-chain asset management company.”

Conclusion

The ORQO Group's plan to build a yield platform for Ripple RLUSD stablecoin is not only an expansion of the application scenarios of stablecoins but also a model for the combination of RWA tokenization and institutional asset management. As the regulatory environment matures and the Middle Eastern market opens up, this model is expected to become an important direction for institutional-level digital asset allocation in the coming years.
