Crypto

Digital asset infrastructure, tokenisation and regulated virtual asset services.

Digital assets are becoming a licensed category in the Gulf rather than an offshore one. The group holds custody, tokenisation and settlement infrastructure that its regulated finance and fintech companies can build on, and takes positions only where a licence or a real balance sheet is involved.
