Key Terms

occ-regulated, qualified custody infrastructure, counterparty risk exposure

3 terms

occ-regulated regulatory

"an OCC-regulated digital asset trust bank and subsidiary of BitGo Holdings"

An OCC-regulated firm is one overseen by the U.S. Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, the federal agency that supervises national banks and federal savings associations. For investors this matters because OCC oversight means the institution must follow federal rules on safety, capital and consumer protections—like having a certified safety inspector—reducing regulatory and operational risk that can affect a bank’s stability and stock or bond value.

qualified custody infrastructure regulatory

"built on BitGo's qualified custody infrastructure"

Systems, institutions and controls used to hold and manage financial assets that meet legal and regulatory standards for custody. It covers secure storage, clear recordkeeping and ownership segregation, transfer processes, access controls, insurance and contingency plans so client assets are kept separate and traceable. Investors care because properly qualified custody infrastructure reduces the risk of loss, theft, or commingling of assets and provides a clear chain of custody similar to a locked safe combined with an audited ledger.

counterparty risk exposure financial

"determines counterparty risk exposure during the window between trade execution"

Risk that one’s trading partner or contractual counterparty will fail to meet its obligations, creating a potential loss for the other side. It matters to investors because many investments — loans, bond holdings, derivatives, repos, or custodial arrangements — depend on the other party paying, delivering assets, or honoring collateral; if they don’t, an investor can lose cash, securities, or expected returns. Think of it like lending your car to someone who might not return it: the lender bears the loss if the borrower defaults.

SINGAPORE, Aug. 25, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Caladan and BitGo Bank & Trust, National Association ("BitGo Bank & Trust"), an OCC-regulated digital asset trust bank and subsidiary of BitGo Holdings, Inc. (NYSE: BTGO) ("BitGo"), are expanding their partnership with the integration of BitGo's Go Network for institutional settlement. Caladan's API Liquidity counterparties can now settle trades through the Go Network, extending the institutional settlement infrastructure available to desks executing through Caladan. The integration is live as of today.

Settlement quality is one of the primary buying criteria for institutional crypto counterparties. The choice of settlement venue determines counterparty risk exposure during the window between trade execution and final settlement, and the operational standards of the settlement provider become part of the buyer's own risk posture. BitGo's Go Network is an institutional settlement network built on BitGo's qualified custody infrastructure, designed for participants who require both speed and institutional-grade controls.

"Settlement is where institutional trust is earned or lost. Our counterparties need to know that every link in the execution chain meets the same standard as the most regulated parts of their own operation. Going live on BitGo's Go Network gives them that assurance and adds another settlement option alongside the channels we already support." — John Gu, CEO, Caladan

"The Go Network was designed to enable institutional participants to settle digital asset trades with the same operational rigor and controls they expect from financial market infrastructure. Caladan's integration expands access to that settlement infrastructure for institutional market participants in Asia, and reflects our continued focus on building secure, regulated infrastructure for the digital asset economy." — Abel Seow, Managing Director and Head of APAC Sales, BitGo

What the integration delivers

Settlement on the Go Network is available immediately to all Caladan API Liquidity counterparties.

For counterparties already operating BitGo accounts, the integration removes friction. Settlement of trades executed through Caladan can be directed to the existing BitGo relationship without additional onboarding, account setup, or custody changes.

For counterparties evaluating institutional settlement infrastructure for the first time, the Go Network provides access to settlement infrastructure built on BitGo's qualified custody foundation and designed for institutional digital asset markets.
