About Us
A precious metals trading institution combining experience in bank treasury operations, precious metals refining, and algorithmic trading within global markets.
Who We Are?
Aizona Kıymetli Madenler A.Ş. is a precious metals trading institution established by professionals with extensive experience in bank treasury operations, gold refining, and bank-level algorithmic trading. The Company was formed with the objective of applying the know-how and operational expertise accumulated through proprietary algorithmic trading activities conducted in financial markets since 2021 to the precious metals markets, within a regulated and institutional framework.
In this context, Aizona has been structured as an institution that combines long-standing professional experience with a newly established corporate platform, operating in line with applicable regulatory requirements and market practices.
One of the Company’s founders has professional experience in the treasury division of a leading bank in Türkiye active in gold banking, with a particular focus on gold transactions and related operational processes. This was followed by professional engagement at a major gold refinery in Switzerland, where direct exposure was gained to refinery supply chains, physical gold trading, and international delivery mechanisms. Subsequent roles at precious metals trading institutions operating in Türkiye further strengthened expertise in both regulatory compliance and commercial market dynamics.
Following the alignment of the founders’ professional backgrounds, this cumulative experience was extended beyond conventional trading activities into a technology-oriented structure integrating financial markets with high-frequency algorithmic trading infrastructure. Notwithstanding its initial operations being conducted with limited proprietary capital, the underlying trading activities reached a scale representing a meaningful share of daily market volume in the relevant markets. In parallel, technology investments were prioritized, including the establishment of a mobile application development company, thereby expanding capabilities in software and product development.
At the intersection of this diversified financial and technological experience and long-standing sectoral expertise in gold and precious metals, Aizona Kıymetli Madenler A.Ş. was established as an institution operating with an integrated approach to trading, technology, data, and operational processes.
The Origin of the Name “Aizona”
Aizonai
The name Aizona is inspired by Aizanoi Ancient City, located within the borders of the Kütahya province in Türkiye.
Aizanoi holds a unique position in economic history not only for its architectural heritage, but also for having hosted one of the world’s earliest known commodity marketplaces.
Origins of Organized Trade
Official price lists carved into stone blocks and discovered in the city demonstrate how market order and public pricing mechanisms were institutionalized thousands of years ago.
Aizona’s brand identity is rooted in this historical foundation. It positions itself as a continuation of a tradition in which trade is not arbitrary but rule-based; pricing is not discretionary but transparent; and markets are governed not by intuition, but by structured systems.
Inspired by Cybele
Our logo draws inspiration from the figure of Cybele, a symbol of abundance, production, and continuity in Anatolia’s ancient cultural heritage, who is also represented in Aizanoi.
This reference symbolically reflects Aizona’s perspective on trade — one centered on value creation, sustainability, and continuity.
A Timeless Meaning
In addition, the name Aizona carries a contemporary interpretative layer, subtly referencing the concept of “AI Zone (Artificial Intelligence Zone)”.
This modern reading aligns naturally with Aizona’s technology-driven operating model, which integrates algorithmic trading infrastructure, data-driven decision-making, and financial technologies.
In this way, the name preserves its reference to historical market culture while discreetly signaling the Company’s technology-oriented structure.
