FalconX, the institutional digital asset prime broker, announced the next phase of its growth with expansion into Latin America.
Now working with some of Latin America’s financial institutions—such as BTG Pactual and Mercado Bitcoin—FalconX is bringing its “full-stack execution and prime brokerage platform to one of the world’s institutional crypto markets.”
As banks and asset managers across Latin America build crypto capabilities, FalconX is bringing its “suite of prime brokerage services – including deep global liquidity, capital efficiency tools, and enterprise-grade infrastructure – to support institutions to scale digital asset operations.”
Reinaldo Rabelo, CEO of Mercado Bitcoin:
“FalconX’s expansion into Latin America is a significant step toward strengthening the region’s institutional digital asset ecosystem.”
Andre Portilho, Head of Digital Assets, BTG Pactual:
“FalconX’s institutional infrastructure accelerates our ability to deliver seamless crypto solutions at the speed the market demands. Their liquidity and global execution capabilities give us a meaningful edge.”
Josh Barkhordar, Head of Americas, Sales at FalconX:
“Latin America is one of the fastest-growing regions for crypto adoption, supported by a tech-forward financial sector, early regulatory frameworks, and real economic drivers.”
This move follows FalconX’s recent “expansions across APAC and EMEA, reinforcing its role as the trusted global infrastructure partner for institutions embracing digital assets.”
As covered, FalconX is a digital asset prime brokerage for institutions.
They provide access to “global digital asset liquidity and a full range of trading services.”
Their team for account, operational and trading needs “enables investors to navigate markets around the clock. FalconX Bravo, Inc., a FalconX affiliate, was the first CFTC-registered swap dealer focused on cryptocurrency derivatives.”
FalconX is reportedly backed by investors “including Accel, Adams Street Partners, Altimeter Capital, American Express Ventures, B Capital, GIC, Lightspeed Venture Partners, Sapphire Ventures, Thoma Bravo, Tiger Global Management and Wellington Management.”
FalconX has offices “in Silicon Valley, New York, London, Hong Kong, Bengaluru, Singapore and Valletta.”
