Crypto: Too Enticing to Ignore?  
Free On-Demand webinar with WatersTechnology from 23 February 2023

Large numbers of buy-side and sell-side firms – including some of the industry’s largest and most respected names – have already embraced crypto as an increasingly critical source of alpha, while others are primed to make the leap. At a time when the traditional equities and fixed-income markets continue to perform modestly, crypto offers investors the possibility of healthy returns through attractive price volatility, while simultaneously streamlining operational practices and reducing settlement risks by virtue of its underlying blockchain technology. The recent Deutsche Boerse-Kaiko partnership that provides market participants with reliable and transparent liquidity and pricing data is well placed to add impetus to the continued institutionalisation of the crypto market.

This webinar focuses on the following topics:

  •  The extent to which crypto as an asset class has been ‘institutionalised’ and the reasons why some of the industry’s largest names have embraced crypto investing.
  •  Details of the recent Deutsche Boerse-Kaiko partnership and the business benefits (use-cases) accruing to buy-side and sell-side firms on the back of the alliance. 
  •  How capital markets firms can make the business case for either directly investing in crypto as an asset class or providing access to crypto assets to their end-investors?
