Kraken Prime, our full-service prime brokerage offering trading, qualified custody and other financial services through an integrated platform, is now available through Trever, the operating standard in digital asset banking.
Prime brokerage inside existing institutional workflowsFrom today, banks and brokers using Trever can route execution, settle into qualified custody, record all transactions and access other services through Kraken Prime without leaving their existing operational environment.
The integration extends Trever’s connectivity, bringing a prime brokerage relationship into the existing workflows institutional teams use across their digital asset operations.
Gurpreet Oberoi, Head of Kraken Institutional, said: “Trever’s clients are some of Europe’s most established financial institutions, and they need infrastructure that meets the operational standards their existing businesses already run on. By bringing Kraken Prime into their workflow, we’re giving them access to execution quality and qualified custody without the operational drag of stitching together multiple counterparties.”
Institutional trading and qualified custody in one platformKraken Prime delivers institutional crypto trading across more than 20 global liquidity venues, covering over 90% of digital asset liquidity, with smart order routing and algorithmic execution for block trades.
Settlement runs into our qualified custody solution. Trading, integrated custody and other services sit within a single platform, backed by a 24/7 institutional account management team.
Hans-Juergen Griesbacher, CEO and Co-Founder of Trever, said: “Banks and brokers want to run digital asset operations at high institutional standards, MiCA-conform and without assembling infrastructure piece by piece. This is why we integrated Kraken Prime, one of the most trusted names in institutional crypto, to bring another trading and custody connection directly into Trever.”
The integration is live and available to eligible Kraken Prime and Trever clients.
