Crypto Prime Broker FalconX Enters Latin America to Target Institutional Digital Asset Clients

FalconX, a global institutional digital asset prime broker, announced its expansion into Latin America, partnering with some of the region’s largest financial institutions, including BTG Pactual and Mercado Bitcoin.

This move aims to provide Latin America’s fastest-growing institutional crypto market with comprehensive prime brokerage services, including deep global liquidity, capital efficiency tools, and enterprise-grade infrastructure.

Hub for Institutional Crypto Adoption

Latin America has become a hotspot for institutional crypto adoption, driven by a tech-forward financial sector, early regulatory frameworks, and substantial economic demand. FalconX’s platform is designed to help banks and regional asset managers scale their digital asset businesses with greater confidence and operational efficiency.

“FalconX’s expansion into Latin America is a significant step toward strengthening the region’s institutional digital asset ecosystem,” commented Reinaldo Rabelo, the CEO of Mercado Bitcoin.

“We admire the work already underway globally and, as a pioneering company operating in Brazil since 2013, Mercado Bitcoin values the presence of players who contribute to a more robust and institutional digital asset ecosystem.”

This expansion follows FalconX’s recent growth in Asia-Pacific and EMEA regions, cementing its role as a trusted infrastructure partner for institutions embracing digital assets worldwide.

The partnership with Latin America’s financial leaders points to a shift towards deeper institutional adoption and integration of digital assets in the region’s economic landscape.
