Overview

What client types do you deal with?

FinchTrade primarily serves institutional and professional market participants, including exchanges, OTC desks, neobanks, brokers, asset managers, hedge funds, and payment service providers. In addition, we may serve selected banks and high-net-worth individuals (HNWIs), subject to internal approval and compliance review. We focus on building long-term relationships with clients that maintain stable and continuous trading activity.

What is digital asset liquidity?

Liquidity refers to the ease with which an asset can be bought or sold without significantly affecting its market price.

In the context of digital assets, liquidity means the ability to execute trades at competitive prices regardless of trade size. FinchTrade aggregates liquidity from multiple institutional venues and OTC counterparties to provide deep order books and efficient execution.

Our smart order routing technology continuously selects the most competitive bids and asks across connected liquidity sources. This aggregation model enables improved price discovery and helps minimise slippage, even for larger trades. As our trading volumes grow, we are able to optimise execution costs and improve pricing conditions for our partners.

Who are market makers and liquidity providers?

In our terminology, market makers are those trading participants that place resting orders in an order book on a centralized exchange. Market makers can be contractual when they fulfil a certain market-making program (obligation) or opportunistic when they pursue only trading profits.

A liquidity provider usually acts on an off-exchange (over-the-counter) market. The OTC market means that there is no central counterparty (such as an exchange or a clearinghouse) and market participants need to settle their open positions post-trade.

We never act as a contractual market maker; we stream our prices on a voluntary basis. Although we do not guarantee to enter into a trade with a trading party, we are always here to help.

Are you looking for turnover commitments?

Yes, we prefer trading parties with a stable and continuous trading flow of €1M per month and above. We are building a long-term relationship including technical integration, thus, we do not target sporadic traders.
