Marex has launched an OTC rolling spot crypto product for institutional clients, expanding its digital assets offering and providing a new way to access crypto exposure without directly holding the underlying assets. 

The cash-settled margin product responds to growing demand from institutional clients seeking greater exposure to digital assets, while avoiding the custody, settlement and operational requirements associated with holding cryptocurrencies directly. 

A new way for Marex clients to access institutional crypto markets 

Marex’s Rolling Spot product enables institutional clients to gain long or short exposure to crypto markets through a cash-settled OTC derivative. 

The launch reflects the continued growth of institutional participation in digital assets, combining the economics of crypto-native markets with the execution standards and operational infrastructure expected by institutional clients, including hedge funds, asset managers and digital asset-native institutions. 

Introducing Neon Crypto 

The launch also marks the introduction of Neon Crypto, Marex’s digital assets app integrated within its existing Neon platform. 

Designed to provide institutional clients with an integrated trading experience, Neon Crypto brings together: 

• precision execution 

• streaming market depth 

• real-time margin oversight 

• portfolio management. 

The platform is supported by Marex’s market expertise and global infrastructure. 

Through Neon Crypto, clients will be able to access the new Rolling Spot product alongside Marex’s broader digital asset capabilities. 

Supporting institutional access to digital assets

Samuel Leyne, Co-Head of Crypto Trading at Marex, said:

“The institutional crypto market is at an inflection point, with greater legal and regulatory certainty driving broader adoption. 

Our Rolling Spot is designed to give institutional clients a more familiar and seamless way to access digital assets. Through a cash-settled OTC derivative, clients can gain long or short crypto exposure without the custody, settlement and operational requirements associated with holding the underlying assets. 

By combining this with Marex’s established institutional credit, margin and trading infrastructure through Neon, we’re bringing digital-asset exposure into a framework our clients already know and use. 

This is an important step in expanding Marex’s full-service digital assets offering and our ability to support clients across liquidity, execution, clearing, structuring, financing and prime brokerage, while bringing new capabilities to market, broadening access and helping move the industry forward.” 

Expanding Marex’s digital assets offering

The launch builds on Marex’s broader digital assets capabilities and provides institutional clients with an additional way to access crypto markets through Marex’s existing trading and technology infrastructure. 

Marex supports institutional and crypto-native clients across liquidity, execution, clearing, structuring, financing and prime brokerage.
