A Regulated Platform

Regulated by the United Kingdom’s Financial Conduct Authority (FCA), GCEX is trying to bridge the gap between institutional investors and cryptocurrency. Its services particularly target four areas: counterparty risk, transparency, custody and technology integration.

Over the years, the platform has partnered with several other well-known service providers in the trading industry. Last year, it inked deals with two big platforms: Devexperts and Trustology.

“The investment from TGV Plus provides us with much-needed capital to continue on our rapid growth trajectory while adhering to regulatory requirements and best practices,” Holst added.

This is largely a greenfield market where GCEX can provide a regulated solution within both crypto and FX together. We believe that GCEX is on track to become a dominant global player.”
