Falconx, a global institutional digital asset prime broker, announced its expansion into Latin America and partnered with some of the region’s largest financial institutions, including BTG Pactual and Mercado Bitcoin.
The move aims to provide the crypto market for Latin America’s fastest-growing institutions with comprehensive Prime intermediary services, including deep global liquidity, capital efficiency tools and enterprise-grade infrastructure.
A hub for facility encryption adoption
Latin America is driven by a technology-centric financial sector, an early regulatory framework, and substantial economic demand, and has become a hotspot for institutional crypto adoption. Falconx’s platform is designed to help banks and local asset managers expand their digital asset business with greater confidence and operational efficiency.
“Falconx’s expansion to Latin America is a critical step to strengthening the region’s institutional digital assets ecosystem,” commented Reinaldo Rabelo, CEO of Mercado Bitcoin.
“We already praise the work ongoing globally, and as a pioneering company that has been operating in Brazil since 2013, Mercado Bitcoin places importance on the presence of players who contribute to a more robust and institutional ecosystem of digital assets.”
This expansion follows Falconx’s recent growth in the Asia-Pacific and EMEA regions, and cements its role as a trusted infrastructure partner for institutions employing digital assets around the world.
The partnership with Latin American financial leaders points to a more institutional adoption and transition to integration of digital assets in the regional economic context.
