Zodia Markets has announced that it entered a strategic partnership with Finery Markets to offer institutional clients broader access to digital asset and fiat liquidity. Backed by Standard Chartered, Zodia Markets brings same-day settlement and access to a wide selection of FX pairs to Finery’s non-custodial crypto ecosystem.
The integration relies on Finery’s Request-for-Quote (RFQ) framework, which allows Zodia Markets to push pricing directly to clients through a single connection point. This structure bypasses the need for technical onboarding, reducing setup time and operational overhead for institutions trading digital assets.

Zodia Markets will also benefit from Finery’s integrations with prime brokers, including Hidden Road, enabling direct pricing and settlement within the Finery ecosystem. This reduces layers of counterparty risk and helps institutions access Zodia’s liquidity without bespoke infrastructure or delayed timelines.
Mark Richardson, Chief Commercial Officer at Zodia Markets, commented, “By joining the Finery ecosystem, we’re removing the operational and technical barriers that have historically slowed institutional adoption. We’re making it significantly easier for a wider network of market participants to access our liquidity — securely, efficiently and at scale. This partnership isn’t just about reach, it’s about purposeful access to digital assets that meets the standards of traditional finance and represents a significant step forward in aligning digital asset trading with the expectations of institutional finance.”
The collaboration expands the utility of Finery’s existing product suite, which includes FM Marketplace, FM Liquidity Match, and FM Whitelabel. All three platforms will now offer access to Zodia’s liquidity as part of their standard offering.
Recent analysis by Finery Markets noted that over one-third of institutional liquidity providers expect the over-the-counter crypto segment to grow by more than 60 percent in 2025. This forecast reflects increasing demand from institutions that prioritize risk management and infrastructure quality.
Konstantin Shulga, CEO and co-founder of Finery Markets, commented, “More advanced players are entering the crypto market, seeking to reduce risks in their trading operations while expecting top-tier infrastructure. Since the beginning, we’ve focused on making sure every corporate client can easily start using crypto with Finery Markets. Our partnership with Zodia Markets enhances this commitment by providing robust, RFQ-based liquidity solutions.”
The service will be immediately available across Finery’s institutional platforms, with no additional integration required from clients.
