Kaiko is advancing digital asset infrastructure with an exclusive ISDA membership
Membership of the International Swaps and Derivatives Association (ISDA) is a notable milestone for Kaiko. The development supports Kaiko in strengthening infrastructure or digital asset derivatives to facilitate institutions. ISDA membership takes into account prominent financial entities, market infrastructure platforms and technology providers. These companies jointly shape the best policy frameworks and practices.
Furthermore, digital asset derivatives have become a developing segment, underscoring the broader evolution. With this in mind, Kaiko provides institutional-level data, infrastructure and analytics in decentralized and centralized locations, covering both derivatives and spot trading around the world. Becoming part of the ISDA allows Kaiko to work with well-known market participants to improve risk management benchmarks and reaffirm the data foundation that underpins effective and safe markets.
While discussing this, Kaiko’s CEO, Ambre Soubiran, highlighted that ISDA’s membership points to digital asset markets becoming increasingly integrated into financial infrastructure and capital markets. With the participation of institutions in the derivatives sector for growth, a transparent and resilient data infrastructure will play a crucial role in supporting robust and effective markets.
Contributing advanced digital asset data insights to the global derivatives model
According to Kaiko, the convergence between digital assets and conventional finance has demonstrated the importance of shared models and market benchmarks. ISDA’s work in documentation, market practices and regulatory standards has long contributed to effective and safe derivatives markets around the world. Kaiko’s participation will enable that platform to significantly contribute to insights into digital asset analytics and data. Overall, these efforts strengthen transparency, institutional accessibility, and market resilience in the world of digital asset derivatives.
