Crypto Solutions in Focus: Standard Chartered Teams Up with FalconX
FalconX, a leading digital asset prime broker, has announced a groundbreaking partnership with global banking giant Standard Chartered.
This collaboration aims to deliver advanced crypto investment solutions tailored for institutional clients.
By leveraging Standard Chartered's extensive banking infrastructure and foreign exchange capabilities, FalconX seeks to facilitate streamlined access to digital assets.
Initially concentrating on clients in Singapore, the partnership plans to expand its reach throughout Asia, the Middle East, and the U.S.
Matt Long, General Manager for APAC & Middle East at FalconX, expressed confidence that this alliance will enhance robust banking and FX solutions for their crypto market clients.
This partnership is significant as it marks FalconX's first collaboration with a traditional global bank, coinciding with increasing institutional interest in cryptocurrencies.
Standard Chartered's projections indicate that the crypto market could grow to $10 trillion by 2026, highlighting their commitment to the sector's longevity.
Their initiatives also encompass launching crypto custody services in the UAE and establishing a new digital asset subsidiary in the EU.
FalconX has already established itself as a key player, processing over $1.5 trillion in crypto trades across 400 tokens, and has notable clients including hedge funds and sovereign wealth funds.
With this strategic move, both FalconX and Standard Chartered position themselves at the forefront of the evolving crypto landscape.
