Membrane Labs, Inc. has launched a new derivatives management platform that streamlines the entire process of managing over-the-counter (OTC) derivatives transactions. 
It includes the management of portfolio-level collateral and trade flow settlement. The platform aims to improve operational efficiency and risk management in the digital asset space for institutions, offering an enhanced OTC trading experience. 
The first trade on this platform occurred earlier this week, involving XBTO and Arbelos Markets. Both companies are leaders in the industry and used Membrane's comprehensive infrastructure for the transaction.

Carson Cook, CEO of Membrane, said:&nbsp;"Clients see Membrane's platform as a game-changer in the digital asset space. Our technology streamlines derivatives trading and counterparty risk management on one platform. Collaborating with XBTO and Arbelos, we set new standards for institutional access to capital markets and portfolio management. Membrane's platform enhances the safety and efficiency of the crypto OTC market." 
Mike Geraci, Membrane's Head of Derivatives, said "Membrane is unlocking the true potential of the OTC derivatives market and solving the fragmented nature of the ecosystem by providing an integrated toolset for direct market access, settlement, custom pairs and valuations, and collateral management. With this infrastructure in place, we expect robust trading volumes and liquidity to gravitate to OTC markets." 
Membrane Labs, established in 2015, provides a software infrastructure for enterprise-grade capital market access. It includes a custody-agnostic settlement network for OTC spot trades, loans, derivatives, and associated collateral management with customizable report-creation capabilities.
