Global credit network Hidden Road has joined digital asset custody service provider Komainu’s collateral management platform, Komainu Connect.
Komainu Connect removes the need to store collateral with trading and liquidity counterparties, reducing client counterparty risk and ensuring that assets are kept in secure and regulated custody. Using the platform allows clients to leverage digital assets in collateralisation scenarios.
Hidden Road is the first digital prime brokerage service provider to join the platform, and follows the addition of cryptocurrency exchange OKX to the network in June.
Nicolas Bertrand, Komainu CEO, says: “Hidden Road is a key addition to our expanding collateral management network, [and is] another piece of the puzzle in bringing this institutional grade offering to the digital asset marketplace.”
Michael Higgins, global head of business development at Hidden Road, comments: “Thanks to its focus on security and regulation, Komainu Connect has the potential to unlock additional volume in institutional digital asset trading.
“As we build out our offering to counterparties trading in traditional and digital assets, Hidden Road continues to cultivate partners that enable efficient and mature workflows with robust, modern approaches to risk and compliance.”
