GMEX group and AWS launch GMEX multiHub digital asset platform

GMEX MultiHub Limited (GMEX), a new business unit of the GMEX Group, has launched Digital MultiHub (MultiHub) in collaboration with AWS. MultiHub is a global cloud-enabled trading and post-trade digital assets market infrastructure platform which facilitates 3rd party trading and post-trade services across traditional and digital asset markets. Delivered through a Platform-as-a-Service, microservices distribution model, MultiHub enables capital markets participants to gain simple access to regulated digital assets and market infrastructure.

Digital assets are becoming increasingly relevant in capital markets portfolios. According to recent research from Fidelity Digital Assets, 84% of US and European institutional investors are interested in purchasing institutional investment products that hold digital assets. However, a lack of standards, platform interoperability and time to market challenges remain across multiple blockchains and traditional infrastructure. MultiHub addresses this fragmentation, providing the growing global market of institutional participants with a faster and safe clearing and settlement solution for hybrid digital and traditional trading.

MultiHub provides global access to turnkey digital asset exchange, custody, and governance solutions. The platform facilitates credit allocation and checking, collateral management and margin trading, order routing, netting and settlement across multiple trading venues, custodians and participants.

To develop MultiHub, GMEX worked with AWS and with Luxoft as a development partner, to implement and deploy the MultiHub platform powered by AWS Cloud and core ledger technology. AWS and GMEX jointly developed the business case, and together created a go-to-market plan to help GMEX grow their business.

Other initial partners and customers include: Trustology, a UK FCA registered digital asset custodian incubated and backed by ConsenSys and also backed by Two Sigma Ventures; GCEX, a regulated UK based traditional and digital assets broker; SECDEX Group, a Seychelles licensed securities, commodities and derivatives exchange; and Arabian Bourse, an Abu Dhabi Global Market based crypto asset exchange and custodian. They are all part of a continuously expanding capital markets infrastructure ecosystem of partners, backers, and customers. These companies provide access to some of the fastest growing regulated digital asset markets and regions.
