Standard Chartered has partnered with B2C2, an institutional digital assets liquidity provider, in a bid to enhance institutional access to digital asset markets.
B2C2 is set to offer its institutional clientele future direct connectivity and liquidity provision to Standard Chartered’s network of banking rails and settlement facilities, under the terms of the partnership agreement.
The collaboration is driven by the accelerating adoption of digital assets across Asia, and is said to bridge the TradFi and crypto markets, in addition to reducing friction in fiat-to-crypto flows, and enabling faster settlement.
Commenting on the partnership, Luke Boland, head of fintech, Asia, Standard Chartered, says: “As digital assets move from the periphery to the core of global finance, we are enabling regulated, scalable market linkage without compromising execution or risk management.”
Thomas Restout, group CEO, B2C2, adds: “Standard Chartered’s global reach, strong regulatory credentials, and commitment to digital assets make it an ideal strategic counterpart as we continue to expand our institutional footprint.”
