Anchorage Digital offers a range of crypto services to a cross-section of Asiaâs financial players

âAsiaâs consumers have adopted crypto with enthusiasm, and its financial institutions need an infrastructure partner so they can offer new crypto products and services. One size definitely does not fit all in a global market, and Anchorage Digital provides custom solutions for its partners.â
â Diogo MĂłnica, Co-Founder and President, Anchorage Digital
Anchorage Digitalâs dedicated relationship management team based in the region provides Asiaâs most important crypto-native companies and financial institutions with 24/7 client operations support, making their needs a priority with bespoke solutions. Further, our time to transactâââunder 20 minutesâââis unmatched in the market and offers a powerful competitive advantage.
Many of our clients in Asia select us for our strong regulatory status in the United States, where our national-level bank charter helps them to meet or exceed national standards for security, risk monitoring, safekeeping, fiduciary obligations, and compliance.
Today, we are pleased to reveal a variety of client types and use cases showing our ability to localize our products based on client needs. These partnerships show that Anchorage Digital has arrived in the region in a major way, representing a cross-section of its traditional players, crypto-native venture capital, hedge funds, and more.
