KuCoin and Ceffu Join Forces

In a significant move for institutional investors, KuCoin Institutional, the professional-focused arm of the global crypto exchange KuCoin, has announced a strategic collaboration with Ceffu, a top-tier provider of institutional-grade custody and digital asset infrastructure. This partnership, unveiled on November 26, 2025, aims to bolster asset security and compliance for professional investors worldwide.

Building upon KuCoin Institutional's ongoing dedication to enhancing its custody framework, this alliance with Ceffu signals a continuation of its strategic direction. The partnership strives to offer institutions top-notch asset protection, compliance, and operational separation, allowing investors to engage confidently in the market while retaining full control over their assets.

Leaders Speak Out

BC Wong, CEO of KuCoin, emphasizes the critical role of infrastructure in fostering institutional trust. "Institutional trust begins with infrastructure – the foundation of security, transparency, and compliance at every level," he asserts. Meanwhile, Ceffu's CEO, Ian Loh, reaffirms their mission: "Security isn't a feature, it's the foundation institutions build on." Both leaders express a unified vision for extending trust-first solutions to more global institutions.

“By partnering with KuCoin, we're extending that trust-first foundation to more global institutional players who share the same commitment to uncompromising protection.”

The partnership is set to introduce new standards for security and compliance, with KuCoin Institutional and Ceffu already working on initiatives to elevate the infrastructure supporting institutional digital asset participation. Details on their joint developments will be revealed shortly.

Strengthening Institutional Trust

This collaboration follows the recent unveiling of KuCoin Institutional as part of KuCoin's brand evolution, positioning it as a premier platform for institutional traders. The initiative highlights a "trust first" philosophy and introduces enhanced services such as VIP trading desks, deep liquidity access, and customized OTC solutions. The partnership with Ceffu further cements this vision, showcasing KuCoin Institutional's commitment to a secure and compliant digital asset ecosystem.

KuCoin Institutional remains steadfast in its mission to connect traditional finance with the digital economy, leveraging advanced trading infrastructure and institutional-grade custody partnerships. Ceffu, known for its certified and attested custody solutions, continues to provide secure storage and management options tailored for institutional clients across the globe.
