Bequant unleashes new prime brokerage platform

Bequant, a global provider of cryptocurrency and digital asset services for professional traders and institutions, has launched its prime brokerage platform, Bequant PRO.

The new launch comes shortly after Bequant expanded its digital asset offering with the addition of XRP pairs.

Bequant PRO includes custody, over-the-counter (OTC) block trading, and risk management, among others.

The new prime brokerage platform was built with risk management in mind, and simplifies complex tasks like margin and trading across multiple venues through a single account.

Bequant explained that the platform is safe, secure and provides reliable, seamless access to seven major digital asset exchanges including Binance, Huobi and OKex; and numerous OTC desks around the world through a unified, intuitive dashboard.

Alex Mascioli, head of institutional services at Bequant, said: “Traders have long complained about the cost and difficulty of having to manage risk and compliance across several accounts at the same time.”

Mascioli continued: “Bequant Pro solves for this by providing the same level of service, reliability and cost reduction that has been in traditional markets for decades.”

George Zarya, CEO at Bequant, added: “As digital assets emerge further into the investing world’s consciousness, it has become apparent that institutional-grade solutions are needed to solve the pain points of a fragmented marketplace. BEQUANT PRO is the cure for what ails sophisticated investors in this space.”
