在被 Ripple 收购几天后,Hidden Road 已获得监管部门批准作为经纪交易商运营。
As initially reported by Bloomberg, Hidden Road â a non-bank brokerage firm that was recently acquired by Ripple (XRP) â has obtained a broker-dealer license from the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority. The FINRA license enables the firm to expand its prime brokerage, clearing, and financing services across fixed-income assets to a wider range of institutional investors.
Hidden Road President Noel Kimmel commented on the move stating that it âenables us to transact a much broader universe of customers.â
FINRA 牌照是在该公司被 Ripple 以 12.5 亿美元收购几天后颁发的。作为整合的一部分,Hidden Road 将使用 Ripple 的 RLUSD 稳定币作为其主要经纪服务的抵押品,并将其交易后活动转移到 XRP 账本上。
Ripple 首席执行官布拉德·加林豪斯 (Brad Garlinghouse) 表示,“这笔交易标志着加密货币进入最大、最受信任的传统市场的千载难逢的机会,反之亦然。” Hidden Road 每年在 300 多家机构清算超过 3 万亿美元的资金,Ripple 现在的目标是通过 XRP 账本来实现这一交易量。
对于 Hidden Road 而言,通过 XRP 账本整合 Ripple 的 RLUSD 稳定币和交易后结算,使其能够提供更快、更低成本的清算服务,从而提高其作为非银行主要经纪商的竞争力。
âInstead of waiting for
Looking ahead, Hidden Road plans to expand its product offering to include fixed-income repurchase agreements and global funding services later this year, leveraging Rippleâs balance sheet and resources.
