Standard Chartered and Coinbase have expanded their partnership on digital assets to explore the development of trading, prime services, custody, staking, and lending solutions for institutional clients.
By using Standard Chartered’s international cross-border bank and digital asset innovation capabilities, underpinned by a risk management framework and Coinbase’s institutional platform, the collaboration aims to develop a comprehensive digital asset solution offering for institutional clients globally, providing a seamless and secure experience for trading and managing digital assets.
