Laser Digital, the digital asset subsidiary of Nomura, has announced its strategic integration with Talos, the premier provider of digital asset trading technology “for institutions.”
This partnership broadens Laser Digital’s reach “among institutional clients while adding a new source of institutional-grade liquidity to the Talos network.”
Jez Mohideen, CEO of Laser Digital, said:
“We are proud to join forces with Talos to expand institutional access to digital assets. Talos and Laser Digital share a heritage in traditional financial markets and a common goal to simplify digital asset trading in a way that is familiar and trusted by institutions”
As a 100% owned subsidiary of Nomura, Laser Digital offers credit and counterparty risk when sourcing crypto liquidity. Laser’s quant-driven liquidity provision and market-making capabilities are powered “by a proprietary technology platform based on years of experience in systematic trading.”
Anton Katz, CEO and Co-Founder of Talos, said:
“We are thrilled to welcome Laser Digital to the Talos provider network, reinforcing our commitment to providing comprehensive trading solutions to institutional clients. Laser Digital stands out in the digital asset landscape and will enrich the liquidity available to Talos clients looking to achieve best execution.”
As more digital asset regulation is “introduced globally, institutional focus on transparency and best execution is expected to grow, making the combination of Talos’s advanced technology and Laser Digital’s institutional-grade liquidity a significant development.”
Talos’s platform, known for “helping clients aggregate liquidity from diverse sources, is designed to support sophisticated trading strategies and to help institutional clients achieve optimal trade execution.”
Backed by Nomura, Laser Digital claims that it “delivers scalable, robust opportunities in digital assets across trading, asset management, and ventures.”
The team works at higher risk management standards, compliance, and commercial viability, all driven “by a belief in more responsible engagement in digital assets.”
With an open and dynamic culture, Laser Digital has “the freedom to adapt to market needs, to move swiftly to capitalisation, and to share learnings with clients and partners – bringing greater confidence to the institutional market for the benefit of all.”
