Copper, a digital asset infrastructure provider, has established a regulated business in the United States, with its local entity becoming a broker-dealer registered with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and joining the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA).
Copper announced on Wednesday that Copper Markets (US) Inc. has been accepted as a member of FINRA, allowing the company to expand its institutional custody and trading infrastructure into the U.S. market.
FINRA's BrokerCheck records show that Copper Markets 'SEC registration status was approved on August 7. The records also identify FINRA as the company's self-regulatory organization.
Copper said its U.S. subsidiary will provide qualified custody, pledge, financing and over-the-counter trading services, as well as access to its ClearLoop network. The network allows institutions to mortgage and transfer cryptocurrencies and tokenized assets as collateral between counterparties.
The company described the expansion as establishing a "qualified custodian" status in the United States. Under SEC regulations, registered broker-dealers who hold client assets in client accounts are eligible to become custodians.
