BRZ, issued by Transfero, is a fiat-collateralized stablecoin that tracks the Brazilian Real (BRL) at a 1:1 peg, with one BRZ designed to equal R$1.00, maintained through controlled minting and burning based on demand [S1][S2].

Holders receive a digital token redeemable for Brazilian Real (BRL), the reference asset, at a 1:1 ratio [S1][S2]. Each token in circulation is backed by R$1.00 held in audited reserves composed of cash and low-risk investments [S2]. BRZ is a price-stable, peg-tracking instrument with no native yield accrual or rebasing; any yield is external, arising only when holders optionally supply liquidity in pools or use third-party DeFi protocols [S1].

Transfero is headquartered in Ipanema, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, originally incorporated in Brazil in 2015 and expanded to Zug, Switzerland, in 2017 [S3]. BRZ issuance is run through Transfero's Asset Tokenization division as a private company rather than a central bank, governed by Brazilian law [S2][S4]. Transfero holds a Central Bank of Brazil (Banco Central do Brasil) Payment Institution license obtained in 2023 [S3]. Holders may convert BRZ back to BRL through regulated partners, with the peg maintained by controlled minting and burning [S1][S2]. Reserves are held via financial and custody institution partnerships [S2].

BRZ is built on the ERC-20 token standard and is multi-chain, with the product page listing Ethereum, Algorand, BNB Chain, Polygon, Avalanche, Base, Stellar, and Solana [S1]. Transfero's treasury mints new tokens when BRL is received and burns them on redemption to maintain the peg [S1][S2]. Onchain activity is publicly verifiable, with independent audits conducted by Parsiq [S1][S2].
