Finhaven Private Markets is based in Vancouver, Canada, and operates in the digital securities (security tokens) sector. Parent firm Finhaven Capital Inc. is a regulated exempt market dealer, authorized marketplace, and clearing agency in British Columbia, Alberta, Saskatchewan, Manitoba, and Ontario in Canada.
Simetria is founded by CEO Ziv Keinan, a blockchain regulation expert. Keinen said they are excited to partner with Finhaven to improve secondary liquidity for growth companies.
“Simetria will use the Finhaven network of global institutional liquidity to drive the revolution of the secondary market allowing growth companies to offer their teams with early liquidity opportunities,” said Keinan.
DH Kim, CEO of Finhaven Private Markets, said they are building a network of global institutional liquidity to realize its vision of global capital market integration.
“We are taking one step forward with this strategic partnership with Simetria. I was pleased that Ziv and I could understand each other quickly and that we had a great outcome at the LA Blockchain Summit. It has been a great conference to pitch Finhaven and to contribute to a panel discussion. It was a very good mix of people from great companies to investors.”
The partnership was announced during the LA Blockchain Summit this week which is an annual event organized by VC firm Draper Goren Holm.
