London-based systematic digital asset manager Temple Capital, which manages around $120m in assets, has joined the collateral mirroring programme offered by digital asset exchange OKX in partnership with Standard Chartered.
The move highlights growing institutional adoption of secure and compliant frameworks for digital asset trading.
Under the arrangement, the majority of Temple Capital’s holdings are kept off-exchange in segregated accounts with Standard Chartered, while mirrored balances on OKX enable efficient market execution. By separating custody from trading, the setup aligns with traditional finance models, enhancing transparency and risk control.
Temple Capital CFO Guy Griffiths said the solution allows the fund to maintain efficient on-exchange trading while benefiting from institutional-grade custody. OKX MENA CEO Rifad Mahasneh added that such partnerships mitigate counterparty risk while providing accessible trading for institutional clients.
