It was a test deal that took place ahead of the launch of the Guardian project. The experiment took place on the basis of Polygon, using a modified version of the Aave DeFi protocol.

Nowadays, financial companies are exploring various opportunities to improve their operations through the use of blockchain. In particular, it is planned to improve the reverse buyout, borrowing and cross-border transactions.
