Crypto Finance Launches AnchorNote to Enable In-Custody Settlement for Institutions

Backed by Deutsche Börse, the FINMA-supervised custodian is debuting the service in Switzerland ahead of a planned European expansion.

Overview

  • AnchorNote lets institutions execute across multiple venues while assets remain in regulated custody, enabling off-exchange settlement and reducing counterparty exposure.
  • BridgePort provides the neutral messaging layer between custodians and trading venues, while Crypto Finance serves as collateral custodian and supports dedicated trading lines.
  • Clients can reallocate collateral in real time via a dashboard or direct APIs, removing the need to pre-fund exchange accounts.
  • The rollout starts in Switzerland, with Crypto Finance citing its Swiss and German regulatory footprint as it prepares to extend access across Europe.
  • The launch follows a broader industry move toward off-exchange settlement solutions, including integrations such as Copper’s ClearLoop and other custodian–exchange partnerships.
