BEQUANT launches industry-first DeFi platform for institutional clients
ST JULIAN'S, Malta, June 28, 2022 /PRNewswireAsiaNet/ --

BEQUANT's prime brokerage clients now can access Uniswap's DeFi marketplace 
through Fireblocks integration.

BEQUANT, the digital asset prime brokerage and exchange, is pleased to announce 
industry-first DeFi access for institutional clients, realized through its 
recent integration with Fireblocks.

Clients will be able to cross-margin between centralized and decentralized 
exchanges, making arbitrage trading more efficient. DeFi marketplaces will be 
fully integrated onto BEQUANT's bespoke platform, negating the need for any 
additional software and multi-signature security protocols will be used to 
secure the assets.

Uniswap is the first DeFi protocol accessible through BEQUANT's DeFi offering. 
Other decentralized exchanges (DEXs) will be integrated in the near future. 
BEQUANT uses a custody-agnostic approach and having Fireblocks as custody 
technology allows clients to safekeep their assets off exchange .

BEQUANT is an ecosystem of services for institutional clients, a true one-stop 
solution in the digital asset world. Its 150+ institutional clients are offered 
direct market access to multiple trading venues, simplified KYC and compliance 
verification.

Uniswap is an automated liquidity protocol powered by a constant product 
formula and implemented in a system of non-upgradeable smart contracts on the 
Ethereum blockchain. BEQUANT clients will have access to order books through 
Uniswap with more being added in the near future.

George Zarya, Founder and CEO, BEQUANT, commented: "DeFi is presenting some of 
the most exciting trading opportunities in the space. Bridging the gap between 
CeFi and DeFi within our ecosystem will be game-changing for the market."

"Our portfolio margining services combine all centralized and decentralized 
venues. We recognise that institutions are moving in this direction and are 
striving to be at the forefront of new advancements in the digital assets 
trading markets."
