Through the partnership, Apex will leverage EDX’s trading and clearing solutions to support its digital markets offering. The collaboration pairs EDX’s purpose-built technology with Apex’s established capabilities and experience across traditional finance, establishing an efficient digital asset trading environment built on institutional standards.
“As participation in crypto continues to evolve, firms increasingly expect the same standards they rely on across traditional finance,” said Tony Acuña-Rohter, CEO of EDX Markets. “Apex shares our focus on applying proven financial market principles to this space, and we’re pleased to deliver the technology supporting the next phase of their digital markets strategy.”
EDX’s institutional-only marketplace is designed to provide transparent price discovery, deep liquidity and reliable execution while maintaining separation between trading and custody. Its trading and clearing model is designed to deliver the performance and operational standards required by sophisticated firms entering and operating in digital assets.
“As digital assets become an increasingly important part of the global financial ecosystem, our focus is on expanding our offerings while maintaining the high standards our partners have come to associate with Apex,” said Travis McGhee, Global Head of Digital Markets at Apex Fintech Solutions. “To achieve this, we need trusted partners like EDX that understand the robust infrastructure supporting institutional markets and can integrate seamlessly with our existing capabilities across traditional finance, allowing us to deliver new solutions with the reliability and efficiency our clients expect.”
EDX and Apex will continue to build on the partnership to support secure, efficient trading and broader participation in digital asset markets.
