UK digital asset exchange Archax expands to US with acquisition

Archax

UK digital asset exchange Archax has acquired Globacap Private Markets Inc. (Globacap PMI) a US regulated broker dealer and alternative trading system (ATS). It bought the US company from fellow British startup Globacap which provides workflow solutions for private markets and is also active in the digital assets sector.

“In particular, we want to help support institutional market participants transition from traditional to digital assets and give them the regulated tools and services they need to do that.
