On November 26, 2025, KuCoin Institutional, the institutional arm of global crypto exchange KuCoin, announced a strategic partnership with Ceffu, a leading institutional-grade custody and digital asset infrastructure provider. This collaboration marks a significant step in KuCoin Institutional's mission to advance secure and compliant solutions for professional investors worldwide, building on previous efforts to enhance its custody ecosystem.
The partnership aims to empower institutions with high standards of asset protection, compliance assurance, and operational segregation, enabling confident trading while maintaining full control over assets. BC Wong, CEO of KuCoin, emphasized, "Institutional trust begins with infrastructure — the foundation of security, transparency, and compliance at every level." Similarly, Ian Loh, CEO of Ceffu, stated, "Security isn’t a feature, it’s the foundation institutions build on."
Together, the entities have begun working on new initiatives to enhance infrastructure supporting institutional participation in digital assets, with joint developments to be detailed later. This follows KuCoin's recent brand upgrade, which introduced services like VIP trading desks, deep liquidity access, and customized OTC solutions, now strengthened through this partnership.
