intro BACKGROUND problem solution why now? Background [Executive Surmmary] As we face Globalization, various barriers between countries have been lowered and the global interaction of people and goods have become more convenient. Especially due to the development of the internet, the number of overseas remittance and payment transactions is rapidly increasing. (The market size of more than $650 Billion will be covered in [Market Potential].) While such a huge market has spurred monopolistic financial institutions, the barriers between users are still high and transparency continues to be a consistent problem. First, "overseas remittance" transactions are slow and ineffective because of systems like the *SWIFT network while Money Transfer Operators (MTOs) such as banks and non-bank fintech companies have limitations in scalability and expandability. Furthermore, the "exchange rate" that emerges when discussing global finance is changing in as we read depending on the political and economic interests between countries. The fees for foreign currency exchange among financial institutions also vary. Thus, participants (individuals or businesses) have paid more than necessary for exchange fees and have been constrained by entry barriers in the "overseas payment" business, a business closely related to overseas remittances. Under these situations, there have been many innovative attempts to destroy inefficient structures through technologies based on the blockchain. The core technology of the first generation blockchain was transparency and security through the Distributed Ledger Technology. For the second generation blockchain (such as Ethereum), the core technology deals with smart contracts and scalability. Since then, the improved block capacity and speed handling which has been consistently brought up is already widely known as the technology that will be first applied to overseas payments and remittance businesses. However, it is still in the early stages of many innovative attempts and the current reality is to present various models. The REMIIT Platform aims to be a revolutionary initiative as a catalyst for the development of a more efficient and innovative structure for overseas remittance and payment and provide these various services in each and every country. Remiit as a Catalyst of Globalization through Decentralized Remittance & Payment *SWIFT: Abbreviation of Society for Worldwide Inter-bank Financial Telecommunication. In order to conduct overseas money transfers, it is necessary to use the SWIFT code instead of the domestic bank code, and it must go through the procedures of Sending Bank - intermediary bank - receiving bank. 02

intro background PROBLEM solution why now? Problem We have briefly discussed above that the existing overseas remittance and payment methods have a variety of problems. These are real stories attributable to the current economic structures and lifestyles, which have been viewed as problems that have been repeatedly and continually raised by numerous companies that have already worked on blockchain-based solutions. The core problems raised are overseas remittances having expensive fees and slow transaction speeds. These companies have each suggested various solutions against these issues. Before further discussing these issues, we need to turn our attention to the simple question: What is "Remittance"? "Remittance" simply means sending out money. However, this is a lexical meaning in the dictionary. From the perspective of businesses, remittances cover not only a simple transfer, but also payments and further extends to "what happens when we send and receive something." REMIIT looks at these issues from this standpoint: there exists a reoccurring overseas payment issue in the huge scale of overseas remittances market, which is derived by issues related to trade and use We will look at the problems in terms of "reliability (security)", " cost-effectiveness (commission and efficiency)" and "infrastructure (right to have various services and market scalability)". 1. Reliability and security issues We cannot put our valuable money to something we cannot trust! The most important element in overseas remittances and settlement is "reliability". However, there are many problems with "reliability" in a monopolistic (centralized) system. 1-1. In principle, in order to send money overseas, the sending entity needs another overseas business operator which it can trust. This situation eventually creats a giant monopoly among financial institutions because individuals or businesses have to go through the SWIFT network. Using the SWIFT network is not only timeconsuming, but a considerable amount of fees are generated among the participating financial institutions. This makes overseas remittances time-consuming and expensive. 1-2. Security issues are also a serious threat because of hacking. The amount of loss in annual remittances is also steadily increasing due to the use of SWIFT network. One recent example is 2016 Bangladesh bank robbery that involved the SWIFT network and amounted to US$81 million. Authorities also suspect that North Korea was involved in that incident. 1-3. Players wishing to participate i n overseas remittances business are required to cooperate with partners from 03

intro background PROBLEM solution why now? other countries. In order to establish business alliances between money transfer operators, trust is essential, and verification of this trust requires a great deal of time and effort. This is the reason why operators (except for monopolistic financial institutions) have difficulty in expanding its business and improving its services. - *KYC / AML is intended to verify the reliability of multilateral such as "Individual-Company-MTO" in overseas transactions. Currently, the verification process, which is required to go through every time you use it, is too complicated and difficult. 1-4. There is no transparency in the current monopolistic system. Currently, there are a very limited number of institutions that are considered trustworthy institutions. It is hard to determine which route the funds are being transferred and why additional fees are charged. People do not know the fact that the brokers add exchange fees in the overseas payment process because people usually focus their concern on the "exchange rate" between countries. 2. Cost-effectiveness(Commission and efficiency) issues In the centralized financial system, fees are raised only because of its market is monopolized by this limited number of players. Here, cost-effectiveness implies not only reasonable pricing but also efficiency. 2-1. Commissions for overseas remittances increase because remittances are made via the SWIFT network, which goes through several brokers in between. Furthermore, remittances took considerable time to complete because it is processed manually by only a small number of institutions. Inefficiency is caused by these factors. 2-2. Sales of allied players participating in the overseas remittances business are also less cost-effective. The tremendous amount of efforts to be exerted to find a reliable partner overseas are far too risky because nothing guarantees that an alliance will be formed. (Traveling overseas to find a reliable company requires a certain amount of money and time.) 2-3. Technological investments for security also result in high costs. This leads to an inefficient structure where all related cost goes back to the remittance/payment participants. *KYC/AML : KYC (Know Your Customer), and Anti-Money Laundering (AML) procedures must be carried out in order to prevent financial crimes such as terror fund inflows and tax evasion. 04

intro background PROBLEM solution why now? 3. Infrastructure issue (right to have various services and market scalability) Consumers have the right to be supplied with a variety of services. In order to get better and more diverse services, we need to move away from the monopolized and centralized systems; the overseas remittance/ settlement infrastructure is likely to expand further. 3-1. Every user would want a more reasonable and faster overseas remittance and payment service, but there is still a lack of infrastructure where the services can be compared and selected against its competitors. Currently small and medium-sized companies join the overseas remittance/payment market, yet it is hard to find a platform where users can compare and select cheaper and safer overseas remittances service information. 3-2. The above-mentioned problem in transparency (1-4) conceals the market, hindering infrastructure development. If the users are provided with information regarding fees of foreign currency exchange in a transparent manner, apart from the exchange rate which is also an important factor in overseas payments, users would find a more reasonable and reliable service to make the payment. This may facilitate service providers to formulate a strategy attracting users and to introduce more reliable services. Still, overseas remittances and payments are locked in a non-transparent environment. It appears that the above problems are neither a separate nor an independent problem. Ultimately, REMIIT recognizes that all the problems seen in overseas remittances and payments are largely attributed to "what happens when we send and receive something." 05

intro background problem SOLUTION why now? Solution :: Remiit Eco System REMIIT intends to innovate the business of "what happens when we send and receive something" from a new perspective. This is where REMIIT's own Ecosystem based on blockchain technology comes into place. At the heart of the overseas remittances/payment, there lies the foreign exchange for remittance process. REMIIT has designed the REMIIT *Smart Contract (RSC) to make the process to scale efficiently. Each participant in the REMIIT Ecosystem are placed at the center of the business relationship. To do this, the REMIIT Smart Contract (RSC) with the REMIIT Payment Gateway Protocol (RPGP) have combined to expand to "payment" through the remittance platform. With this infrastructure of these ecosystems, each participant can create a variety of channels to overcome existing problems. Ultimately, the limitations of the previous foreign exchange ecosystem will be overcome by various channels, the market will expand, and the business will grow. Components 1. RSC (REMIIT Smart Contract) We offer low-cost commission (B2C) to business participants in overseas remittances at various levels as well as "REMIIT SMART CONTRACT (RSC)" which will connect to the extended network (B2B). Blockchain technology has laid an innovative foundation for breaking down barriers between countries in a new unprecedented way that was not known before. Additionally, smart contracts provide the new means by which existing industries could be linked to new innovations. RSC provides the interfaces to various participants in the remittances/payment process to leverage smart contracts in a more organic manner. First, participants who directly and/or indirectly participate in the RSC can check transaction information, communicate and share through a dedicated message channel, so that contracts can be concluded transparently in an optimized manner. In addition, Smart Contracts provide the security and escrow functionality, which is a key feature enabling each participant to trust each other. RSC-based business expansion is the fundamental core and first step in the REMIIT ecosystem. 2. REMI-REMD 2-tier Token System : How to solve Crypto Paradox REMIIT intends to provide REMD as the intermediary currency of the key tool, RSC(REMIIT Smart Contract). In order for REMD to function reliably as an intermediary currency, a detailed and systematic design is required. Inevitably, cryptocurrency is bound to rely on external exchanges for exchanging, which can lead to fluctuations thus threatening stability of the price. We named this contradictory situation the 'Crypto Paradox' and designed *Smart Contract : Distributed Ledger Technology (e.g blockchain) is a technology in which transactions are automatically concluded between parties when certain conditions of a transaction are satisfied. In addition to streamlining procedures and reducing costs in various transactions such as finance, secure contracts can be made between the parties. 06

intro background problem SOLUTION why now? the external cryptocurrency REMI and the internal cryptocurrency REMD to solve the external price fluctuations and the duality of the internal business ecosystem. First, REMI has a control function for the stability of REMD as a buffer for external markets and a tool for policy implementation in the internal market. With the help of REMI, REMD gains the foundation of stability for internal business operations and secures liquidity by building the REMD Decentralized Exchange (REX). REMD's internal trading through REX is an ambitious plan to secure liquidity and expand the remittance business. Unlike the existing ones, the participants wanted to eliminate liquidity by combining DEX with remittances. 3. Expansion to REMIIT Payment Gateway Protocol (RPGP) If the overseas remittances process is effectively invigorated with the RSC and issuance of the REMI Token, we will be able to expand the entire business area up to the payment infrastructure. In this regard, REMIIT has designed a protocol (RPGP: REMIIT Payment Gateway Protocol) to organically link RSC that covers payment transactions. Through RPGP, payment providers and participants in related businesses can explore overseas business by linking to RSC. This will give the opportunity for RSC participants to open new businesses beyond the existing remittance services Participants in the REMIIT Eco System on Component level are as follows. Participants Payment providers This participant supply liquidity by providing the payment function; applicable to credit card companies, banks, and existing payment gateways (PGs). Banks Banks are running conventional foreign remittances businesses. They provide payment and remittances services to companies and individuals. They will be able to connect with more participants through REMIIT. Fintech providers As the conventional functions of the bank have been fragmented, other various participants have started and are growing this area of business equipped with financial and IT technologies. These new players can contribute to fragment into various functions, in which the participants can connect with each other in various ways. Platform businesses Platform businesses play as catalysts for international business. These facilitate foreign business players to connect end consumers to various sales agents for the invigoration of related international business. REMIIT allows each participant to have payment contact points in a more efficient way, which can increase competitiveness and speed up the expansion of the ecosystem. 07

intro background problem SOLUTION why now? Consumers Consumers as overseas remittances users includes migrant workers and students studying overseas, as well as buyers who purchase goods via overseas sales platforms can enjoy the benefits of this ecosystem because they will have a wide variety of choices. Corporate entities Corporate entities conduct business overseas in a variety of ways, beyond individual transfers and payments. They can overcome the limits of conventional methods and become a key participant in REMIIT in the area of international trade and business. banks payment providers platform business Linker consumers fintech providers corporate entities REMIIT BLOCKCHAIN RSC REMIIT Smart Contract RPG REMIIT Payment Gateway REMIIT BLOCKCHAIN banks payment providers consumers Linker platform business corporate entities fintech providers How this ecosystem technically works is described in detail in [REMIIT Components]. 08

intro background problem solution WHY NOW? Why Now?:: Blockchain Currently, various attempts are being made to commercialize the blockchain, so it is time that REMIIT Ecosystem plays an important role for overseas remittance and payment. Unlike the past when the SWIFT code was taken for granted, many fintech companies tried to develop various programs and apps to tackle the issues (slow process, high cost, etc.) derived from the SWIFT code. Every time new technology is introduced, it is not always accepted with full trust. In the 1990s for example, online banking was not stable and reliable either. Since 1990s, however, e-commerce and many technologies including online banking have been enabled by innovation. New technology, despite its limitation at first, improves over time and improves our standard of living. Now, another new technology has come to the world: BLOCKCHAIN. The first blockchain revolution is Bitcoin and is used for payment as well as for remittance by millions of people. The second revolution is in the blockchain itself. Blockchain is being tested and utilized in diverse industries and connected with one another. Third one is the smart contract included in the Ethereum blockchain system. The smart contract provides e-contract, e-vote, and etc. based on the blockchain technology. Since the smart contract makes the process of the contract transparent, a number of financial institutions conduct various projects through it. In addition, not only do financial corporates but also companies from other industries attempt to apply the blockchain technology to a variety of areas. In this sense, it is likely that blockchain would be commercialized in the near future. This technology, comparable to the Internet, could make the world more connected and efficient not just in the financial sector but also diverse fields. New kinds of businesses and opportunities that have not existed before would be created, and we should enjoy them. At this point of time, REMIIT is attempting to establish a platform that connects overseas remittances and payments, which is one of the most important backbones for the industry, using the blockchain technology. REMIIT aims to provide creative opportunities and channels for the various participants to be linked in a much more free and efficient way than before, and to provide a simple interface to utilize the blockchain technology. REMIIT will assist businesses to expand in areas many would not have imagined with conventional monolithic channels. 09

solution why now? MARKET POTENTIAL REMIIT component team Market potential Why now? It is obvious when you look at the blockchain technology and the market size of overseas Remittances/payment. Furthermore, it is time for REMIIT to create new markets (business scalability). If the REMIIT Ecosystem works, a universal business expansion will take place, and this is what we mean by the true market potential. Let's take a look in details. Remittance Market Size According to the World Bank, the amount of international remittances worldwide in 2016 was about US$613.3 billion, which has steadily grown by 2-4% every year. The amount of overseas remittances only from the United States exceeds US$130 billion each year. Second, this figure is three times that of Saudi Arabia ($44 billion) which has a large outflow of remittances. This is the reason why Western Union, the world's largest Remittances brokerage companies (20% market share) and MoneyGram (5% market share) are located in the United States. Currently, Money Transfer Operators such as existing commercial banks, Moneygram and Western Union accounted for an absolute share in the global remittances market, 94% as of 2014. Under this situation, the emergence of blockchain and cryptocurrencies has brought a big difference in the status of overseas remittances. In 2014, 6% of the remittances abroad were through cryptocurrencies. As of July 2015, Venture Scanner 1 identified 42 global fintech companies which are related to foreign exchange and remittances. As of the end of 2018, the number of startup companies increased more than 10 times in a year or two, including new start-ups preparing to begin. These fintech startups are making great efforts to increase the quality of service and remittances volume. They are gradually taking their share in the market out of the 94% market share that was held by remittances brokers such as commercial banks, Moneygram and Western Union. As of 2016, the number of migrant workers were approximately 188 million, and the total amount remitted by them in 2016 reached a total of US$445.5 billion. Among them, REMIIT is focusing with already-established pools and know-how on the Asian market, where US$243.6 billion was remitted to Asia. India is the largest with US$63 billion, followed by China (US$61 billion) and the Philippines (US$30 billion). Unlike the developed countries such as the US and Europe, the majority of transactions in the Southeast Asian countries are made through banks as overseas remittances brokers have not yet evolved to their full extent. The "dollar" still dominates the currency used for overseas remittances, followed by Bitcoin, surpassing the euro and the yen since May 2017. In 2018, Ripple mentioned that "Over US$155 trillion is being sent abroad every year (Brad Garlinghouse, Ripple CEO)", the market is growing exponentially, the blockchain-based overseas remittance infrastructure is facing the golden era. 10

Overseas remittances are overlapped with the overseas payment market, which means there is a potential business expansion opportunity if some of the problems are resolved. The following example shows that the overseas remittances market and the payment are closely linked. Scenario One of the examples is DCC (Dynamic Currency Conversion). DCC is a method of overseas payment with a credit card paying in the currency of the credit card holder instead of the local currency abroad. When you travel abroad, you may have been asked whether you would like to make a payment with a currency of your own country or the local currency. The procedure for the DCC payment is as follows. 11

solution why now? MARKET POTENTIAL REMIIT component team The process of overseas payment in the DDC system DDC service at abroad Steps of the existing overseas credit card service Foreign (local) currency 3 ~ 8% Additional fees International card company converts into USD Domestic Card company converts into KRW Credit Card Billing $... currency exchange to KRW Visa, Master Brand Fee (1-14%) Overseas usage fee charged by Domestic card company (0.18-0.035%) <Korea Consumer Protection Board> As described above, you pay more commission fee in the DDC system. This system requires you to pay additional fees (3-8%) since it shows you the price exchanged in your currency. The final fee is raised up to 11% of the payment after exchanging it into USD once again. Even though DCC conveniently estimates the price where your card is issued, it never tells you how much commission fees are added on your bill. In the nontransparent overseas payment system, however, it will happen again in other tricky ways. Diverse commission fees that customers seldom know in overseas payment: 1. Exchange fee 2. Payment gateway company fee 3. Bank fee 4. Card company fee In the non-transparent system in which many corporate bodies are involved, it is possible that customers pay more than needed without knowing why and do not have the right of choice and decision. REMIIT tries to make this market more transparent by enabling users to track all the transactions. 12

To make this successfully happen, REMIIT focuses primarily on the operation of the RSC. RSC is the basis of the REMIIT Ecosystem and it would lead to solve the non-transparent currency exchange when it is activated. Also, the payment system (RPGP) could be easily introduced. 13

Remiit Smart Contract(RSC) REMIIT builds its own smart contract framework over blockchain and provides a REMIIT Smart Contract (RSC) template optimized for overseas remittance service providers. The RSC template is created as a result of research by REMIIT's development team as well as suggestions and feedback from various participants. This will be continuously updated in terms of quantity and quality applying the various remittance mechanisms, such as free funding and pooling, etc. In the RSC, business participants are expected to easily find the right template for their own situation to enter the right conditions upon specific needs. REMIIT also provides a low-level (programmable) and high-level (configurable) interface, so that participants can easily create an RSC and adjust conditions, ultimately aiming to activate the RSC. 14

solution why now? market potential REMIIT COMPONENT team Basically, RSC-based contracts are made by *Linkers in different remittance areas such as China, US, Japan and so on. After the RSC is made between the Linkers (Linker A, Linker B), other users (Remitter, Receiver, Company A, Company B) can proceed with the transaction. Technically, the transaction process is reliable because RSC makes the escrow function algorithm. Based on this transparent RSC, other participants can use and share the services provided by REMIIT. The above diagram shows an overview of the escrow flow executed by the RSC and its design is optimized for various business situations. In this sense, RSC is the backbone of all transactions in the REMIIT ecosystem. Through this, REMIIT's key mission, "the invigoration of financial transactions between third parties who are not likely to trust each other" will be realized. * Linker:REMIIT defines a Linker as various participants (MTO, etc.) for overseas remittances/payment. RSC store :: Linker matching system The scalability of the REMIIT ecosystem is primarily based on the scalability of RSC. This scalability is presented in two ways. The first aspect of the scalability is the ease of production and use. It is easy to use by entering the conditions you want through a simple interface of the RSC template. Also, participants can create and propose RSC templates. REMIIT will provide a means to use RSC through various upgrades. The second aspect is the market function to support the scalability of the RSC used. The various RSC templates and conditioned RSCs are exposed to the actual business participants. Only when the contract is concluded, the transaction proceeds. To do this, REMIIT provides the RSC store space, and various Linkers can propose or find the optimal RSC and make a contract. Furthermore, non-linker participants can use it to find the deal that they want. The RSC store is, in fact, a business market. RSC communication channel A separate communication channel is provided for each RSC contract. This can be used in various ways by providing Interfacing and API of the REMI wallet. All transactions made during transaction are recorded and shared in this communication channel, and participants can exchange messages and event promotions. Reputation system Transactions and messages originating from the RSC are recorded on the blockchain. This information can be used as objective data with the reliability and security of the blockchain. REMIIT reputation system provides 16

solution why now? market potential REMIIT COMPONENT team transparent credit information to all participants based on objective information with the reliability of the blockchain and provides incentives through credit information. This system can be a cornerstone for making transactions between third parties in the REMIIT ecosystem more transparent and secure. 2. Remiit Payment Gateway Protocol(RPGP) RSC will establish the foundation for primary scalability. The REMIIT Payment Gateway Protocol (RPGP) is designed to drive the expansion of the international payment business and spearhead infrastructure development. In addition to the direct overseas remittances, foreign exchange transactions must be indirectly involved in all businesses that require overseas payment. However, foreign exchange has always been made in a closed system of the conventional financial system. As a consequence which has been identified so far, it is a huge loss for both users and remittance business participants. Though it is already known that a remittance is a kind of business that is naturally linked to payment, this nontransparent system has concealed the market. Let's take a look at the flow diagram and how we can expand this connected business. 17

solution why now? market potential REMIIT COMPONENT team The core concept of RPGP is to expand the payment function of Domestic Payment Gateways (domestic PG) to overseas payments. To do this, we provide a structure in which PG (Payment Gateway) and RSC are organically linked. For example, overseas commerce is made via the Payment Gateway (PG), the payment process itself seems to be the same as domestic commerce, but the international remittances of the payment process are made with the RSC, so various Linkers can participate. In other words, the Linkers propose an RSC contract that the RPG requires, and business users choose what they want to use, so the process becomes transparent and cost-effective. The RPGP combined with the RSC is a core infrastructure of the ecosystem that ultimately completes the cycle of the flow of money (value) and will be the foundation of a new financial business. Remiit is committed to addressing complex connectivity issues through ongoing blockchain research and User Experience (UX) design to reach a concise interface to a wide range of participants. 3. REMIIT Token Economy One of our biggest challenges is how the token used within the REMIIT ecosystem can have a stable value. To solve this problem, we are designing our own REMIIT token economy, and we try to solve the following two key points. First, the REMIIT token must be priced through exchanges that exist outside the ecosystem, that is, it is exposed to external volatility. Second, the key business participants namely REMIIT Linkers, must be provided with the liquidity of the REMIIT token. REMI-REMD 2-tier token system REMIIT has separated the external and internal tokens to minimize the impact on external volatility. Basically, the issuing token is limited to the external token REMI which is exposed to the ICO and the external exchange. REMD, a token for internal business transactions, can be issued through the conversion of REMI, and the issuance of additional REMI is subject to the terms of the issuer (mainly business participants). Thus it is an ecosystem reward system that is a type of mining which encourages internal business operations. Here the primary function of REMD for businesses is to used as RSC's function token. REMD DEX REMD is resistant to external fluctuations through the 2-Tier token system. Based on this, we want to secure the liquidity of REMD which is more important to the Linkers. If you cannot convert the REMD you have for RSC operation to fiat currency in a timely manner, you will have to question the necessity of using REMD. In the process of overseas remittance, Linkers in some regions inevitably consume a large amount of REMD, while in some regions Linkers have a large amount of REMD inflow creating a disproportionate share of REMD between 19

solution why now? market potential REMIIT COMPONENT team Linkers in different regions. To solve this problem, DEX (Decentralized Exchange) dedicated to REMD should be built within the ecosystem. This REX (REMD DEX) allows the Linkers to trade with each other in REMD or other major cryptocurrencies designated by REMIIT. This will be traded according to the supply-demand market and will naturally resolve the imbalance. In addition, it is planned to be built so that internal transactions can be made with fiat currency available in the specific region. The initial process of this ecosystem will focus on creating active business operations between Linkers, but as it progresses, it will expand as a Decentralized Exchange feature. In this process, the Linkers will function as Market Makers, and we will add another mining reward system for the transactions. This can be seen as a reward for REMD issuance and liquidity provider. As a result, the cryptocurrency that acts as the core within the ecosystem is REMD, and REMI plays a role not only as a tool to control the stability of REMD, but also as a buffer in the external market as an execution tool such as issuance and policy. REMIIT Token Economy is a very important element in the REMIIT ecosystem, and a separate whitepaper describes the detailed structure and policies.

solution why now? market potential REMIIT COMPONENT team Linkers with various expertise levels of business can operate on the REMIIT platform in their own way according to their operating requirements. To support various interworking methods according to the degree of freedom of the technical infrastructure of the Linkers, REMIIT Linker Protocol (RLP) is provided. There are two main purposes of providing RLP. First, REMIIT provides a simple interface for Linkers to conduct business with various components within REMIIT. Second, we aim to define standardized communication protocols between Linkers. Previously, Linkers are supposed to learn and utilize the service infrastructure created by other Linkers in order to connect their businesses. As we have looked into issues previously, Linkers have been constantly demanded to pay a high cost in this ever-changing business environment. In this regard, REMIIT is committed to provide Linkers with the means to easily access various components and to define a standardized interface. We will provide a variety of services for RLP and will continue to expand as the Linker category grows. This diagram depicts an architecture in which how the various groups of Linkers utilize them. KYC / AML solution One of the most important but troublesome procedures for the Linkers and users in the overseas remittances are the KYC (Know Your Customer) and AML (Anti-Money Laundering) processes. Overseas remittance users are expected to provide personal information according to the requirements specific to each Linker. The Linkers are expected to do these KYC and AML processes every time they remit. This is quite inconvenient and tedious. REMIIT is devoted to help with this process with a provision of a KYC/AML Solution Tool. Basically, this solution is designed to help the KYC/AML process, at the same time; it also has some other important components. First, the KYC/AML outcomes of each Linker are recorded in the blockchain. With this objective information, previous KYC/AML outcome is available for checking and verification. Based on this information, Linkers will be able to contact other Linkers on the basis of reliability and refer to the Reputation system. Furthermore, users can manage their personal information effectively by designing the KYC/ AML process with the Linkers that require different information from users. For this, we have created a standardized format of the personal information for each country related to remittances and linked channels between REMI wallet and the KYC/AML solution. Within the REMI wallet, users can keep their personal information to comply with the national standards of each remittance, which is only kept safe within the app. Users no longer have to go through complex processes to provide personal information to meet different formats and requirements of Linkers. 22

Not only the cryptocurrency (including other cryptocurrencies in addition to REMI) remittance and management function but also currency exchange and trading functions will be added, and the following additional functions related to the RSC will be provided. RSC management RSC management is similar to the Favorites function. Users can manage the RSCs they are participating or interested in. It provides various functions to utilize the RSC, such as a function to participate in the RSC presented by a Linker, play a role as a history feature and so on. 23

solution why now? market potential REMIIT COMPONENT team Linker management Linkers are very important to users of overseas remittances for an efficient remittance. One of the biggest advantages of using REMIIT services is that you can check the process of transactions transparently and choose a trade method with the Linkers, which was non-transparent in the past. Through the Linker management service of REMI wallet, users can easily read the RSC List proposed by the Linkers and reputation score that reflects transaction history. Also, users can experience the function which they can take an active part in the transaction. KYC information management KYC information management is the function interlocking with the above KYC/AML solution. It can securely manage user's personal information in the wallet and approve the information access upon the request of a Linker. Reputation management Users can manage the credit rating generated from the blockchain transaction. This feature allows participants to manage their own credibility and enjoy various benefits. Remiit payment REMI wallet can be used as a payment means by itself. Direct payment services with electronic devices (smart phone, etc.) will also be provided when purchasing goods. To sum up, the question of "what happens when we send and receive something" lets us find a solution. It was about a question of the possibility of efficiency and scalability. REMIIT aims to ask authentic and realistic questions about the problems examined above and is committed to research in-depth contexts and to provide an advanced User Experience (UX). remiit.io Twitter: @remiitplatform Telegram: @remiit info@remiit.io WEHADO LTD. 24
