Speaking of the global assets, John J. Ray, III who took over after Sam Bankman-Fried resigned as the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of the exchange said “Based on our review over the past week, we are pleased to learn that many regulated or licensed subsidiaries of FTX, within and outside of the United States, have solvent balance sheets, responsible management and valuable franchises.”

Ltd, FTX Turkey Teknoloji Ve Ticaret A.Ş., FTX EU Ltd, FTX Exchange FZE, and Zubr Exchange Ltd – are debtors. Either way, it will be a priority of ours in the coming weeks to explore sales, recapitalization, or other strategic transactions with respect to these subsidiaries, and others that we identify as our work continues.”
