Security & Transparency

Protected First

Protection of capital precedes the pursuit of return. Every safeguard is structural — and open to inspection.

Section I

Security

A layered structure beneath every allocation.

Escrow Structure

Funded by GBCB Foundation from 33% of operational profit — an extra buffer, not drawn from member deposits.

Multi-Signature Wallets

No single key moves assets. Custody requires multiple signatories.

Cold Storage

Assets held offline, away from connected systems and routine access.

Controlled Access

Access is permissioned, logged, and limited to authorised parties.

The Escrow Reserve

The escrow reserve is built and funded by GBCB Foundationnot from members' deposits, and never at the expense of a member's allocation. 33% of realised operational profit is directed to it; the reserve grows with performance and stands behind the structure as an extra layer of security, continuity, and risk management.

Section II

Transparency

Nothing is asked of a member that cannot first be reviewed.

  1. I.

    NDA contract inspection

    The full contract is open to inspection under a non-disclosure agreement, before any capital is committed.

  2. II.

    Verification through Arm Lawyers

    Identity, source of funds, and contract are verified and overseen by Arm Lawyers — an independent legal partner.

  3. III.

    Legal oversight

    The structure operates under continuous legal oversight, not a one-time sign-off.

  4. IV.

    Contract review by appointment

    Members and approved candidates may review the contract in person, by appointment, with independent counsel present.


Section III

Compliance & Verification

A clear path to approval — completed before participation, never after.

I

KYC

Know-Your-Customer verification of every approved candidate's identity.

II

WWFT

Source-of-funds and anti-money-laundering checks under WWFT.

III

Verification through Arm Lawyers

Independent legal verification and oversight of identity and contract.

IV

Approval before participation

No allocation is accepted until verification is complete and the council has approved the seat.

Section IV

Risk & Mitigation

We do not hide risk. We name it — then frame how it is contained.

The Risks

  • Market risk — asset values can fall, sharply and quickly.
  • Liquidity risk — committed assets may not be instantly withdrawable.
  • Counterparty risk — exchanges, validators, and partners can fail or default.
  • Operational risk — keys, systems, and processes can be compromised or mishandled.
  • Regulatory risk — rules around digital assets are evolving and can change.

How They Are Mitigated

  • Escrow reserve — a GBCB-funded buffer absorbing shocks to the structure.
  • Multi-signature wallets — no unilateral movement of assets.
  • Cold storage — the bulk of assets kept offline.
  • Legal verification — oversight and contract review through Arm Lawyers.
  • Individual contracts — each participant's terms defined and documented.
  • Controlled allocation — diversified, disciplined, never unmanaged exposure.
Plainly stated

No Public Offer. No Guarantee.

Templar XIII is a closed, private membership platform. Participation is by approval only and subject to KYC / WWFT verification. The safeguards described here protect capital but do not guarantee any return.

Nothing on this site is an offer of securities, an invitation to invest, or a solicitation of any kind. Members and prospective members must consult their own legal, tax, and financial advisers before any decision. Past performance is never indicative of future outcome.
