# Welcome to City Protocol

An infrastructure to democratize structured products onchain that align with different risk profiles and investment goals.

City Protocol is building a universal infrastructure for structured products that align with different risk profiles and investment goals. The protocol is a structured-product infrastructure that enables users to enter a variety of structured products across DeFi and RWA (issuance and operation, tokenization, vault infrastructure), built on existing blockchains, and it packages third-party strategies into products that eligible users, subject to KYC/KYB checks, jurisdictional restrictions and product-specific eligibility, can access from a self-custodied wallet.

## Two products today, one platform

City Protocol offers two products for different investment goals as of September 2026, and the infrastructure grows as new structured products are onboarded.

Both products are offered through Venzo, the flagship application at [app.venzofinance.com](https://app.venzofinance.com), where users access Curated Vaults and OTPs in one platform and subscribe from a self-custodied wallet. Each screen of the application is set out in [Venzo](/docs/platform/products/venzo.md).
