The combination is designed to overcome the challenge of integrating digital assets into existing risk management and collateral workflows. Connecting the two platforms offers market participants a path to managing both on- and off-chain collateral workflows in an integrated environment.

For Talos clients this will enable firms to monitor all trades executed through its platform with the same institutional-grade oversight used by leading exchanges and market participants globally.

Specifically, clients will receive access to sophisticated detection alerts that identify suspicious trading patterns—including layering, spoofing, wash trading, and cross-market manipulation—across the venues they trade on through Talos.

A recent Nasdaq report found that 25% of collateral is currently tied up in corrective and non-interest-bearing measures, representing over $35 billion in excess or non-remunerated collateral.

“This partnership solves a fundamental challenge facing institutional markets: the inability to manage exposure across markets with a single risk and asset lens,” says Nasdaq EVP Roland Chai. "This partnership builds on a series of strategic initiatives designed to converge on- and off-chain market ecosystems, while preserving the liquidity, transparency and integrity of regulated markets.”
