The Risk
Banks are increasingly required by investors to support investment in digital and tokenised assets. Some banks have made the decision to enter the digital asset class, while others have announced that they will not; many more have this on their ‘roadmap’ but are delaying due to lack of knowledge, low risk appetites and lack of institutional-grade providers in the market. The problem for many is knowing which of the many emerging digital asset service providers to work with.
The Solution
Digital asset risk should be limited to the success or failure of an instrument, not the operations and support investment. Thomas Murray has created the first operational risk solution focused exclusively on the servicing and safekeeping of digital assets. Launched in 2021, it provides banks and institutional investors – asset managers, hedge funds, asset owners and others – with the information and analysis they need to invest confidently in this growing asset class.
Thomas Murray provides trusted, independent validation of service providers, ensuring that their capabilities and operational safety are fully understood and satisfy investors’ requirements throughout the lifecycle.
