#USCryptoWeek Standard Chartered launches spot BTC & ETH trading for institutions

Standard Chartered has begun offering spot trading for Bitcoin and Ethereum through its UK branch, targeting institutional clients such as corporates, investors, and asset managers.

This makes it the first globally systemically important bank to provide regulated and scalable access to deliverable crypto spot trading.

Clients can now trade BTC and ETH via familiar FX trading interfaces, with non-deliverable forwards to be added soon.
