Rakkar, a leading digital asset custodian in Asia, announces a strategic partnership with DigiFT, a pioneer in the realm of regulated exchanges for on-chain real-world assets (RWA). This collaboration marks a significant milestone in the journey towards a more secure, transparent, and efficient digital finance landscape.

Qualified custodianship of tokenised RWA such as DigiFT’s USD treasury bills, bank bonds and money market funds represent a significant advancement towards maximising asset security and capital efficiency.

“Our partnership with DigiFT underscores our commitment to providing secure, compliant, and innovative custody solutions that meet institutional demands in the digital asset space. By collaborating with a regulated RWA exchange like DigiFT, we pave the way for institutions to achieve a more capital-efficient future,” said Arthit Sriumporn, Founder & CEO of Rakkar.

Together, we aim to set new standards for asset security and innovation in the digital asset industry,” added Henry Zhang, Founder & CEO of DigiFT.
