State Street, a major U.S. financial services provider, has partnered with Swiss-based crypto firm Taurus to expand its offerings in the digital asset space.
The collaboration aims to meet the growing institutional demand for digital asset services by introducing new capabilities, including the tokenization of real-world assets, which allows these assets to be traded as digital tokens.
State Street, which already provides fund administration and accounting services for crypto investments, will now extend its services to include the custody of crypto assets and the facilitation of tokenized assets, according to a report from Reuters.
