Amber Group, a UK-based digital asset trading platform, is launching WhaleFin Club, which will allow retail investor participation in the cryptocurrency market.
The group said “[WhaleFin is] an exclusive members-only club designed to offer unrivalled access to bespoke services and unique incentives previously only available in private banking. The club is aimed at enhancing the user experience for top clients and seasoned investors, whilst elevating Amber Group’s reputation as one of the leading global digital asset platform.”
Previously Amber Group had focused on institutional and high-net worth clients. WhaleFin is a more universal platform.
Amber Group operates globally with offices in Asia, Europe, and the Americas. The firm provides a full range of digital asset services spanning investing, financing, and trading. Amber Group is backed by prominent investors including Sequoia, Temasek, Coinbase Ventures and Blockchain.com. Across all products and categories, Amber Group has had USD1tr in turnover volumes since inception in 2015.
Institutional-grade
The company explained that WhaleFin users can access institutional-grade trading tools through an online interface which enables beginners to buy, earn and swap assets simply and securely whilst allowing experienced investors and active traders to deal with advanced trading features. Amber Group said in a statement, “Clients enjoy customisation of token, linked price, and maturity dates, offering innovative ways to grow a portfolio of digital assets.”
Amber Group is promoting WhaleFin Club as an exclusive members-only club that will offer more tailored offerings for key clientele, ranging from family offices, asset managers to high net worth individuals. It said the club is designed to provide clients with insight and enable them to capture prime digital investment opportunities to stay ahead of the market, whilst presenting tailored products in primary and secondary markets based on market dynamics, trends and customer needs.
The group explained that WhaleFin Club’s wealth management perks are set to include portfolio management, Non-Fungible Token (NFT) concierge service, near-instantaneous credit lines, customized structured products and access to early-stage venture investments sourced by Amber Group.
Michael Wu, chief executive of Amber Group, was excited to launch WhaleFin Club “as part of [the company’s] expanding suite of products and services.”
