 This development, announced on July 24, will enable Hex Trust to offer regulated “Digital Payment Token” services in Singapore, including custody and over-the-counter trading.
According to the announcement, the approval comes amidst a rising demand for advanced and compliant digital asset management solutions from institutional clients, especially in a region experiencing swift fintech growth.&nbsp;
Hex Trust, which established its Singapore office and team in 2020, <a href="https://hextrust.com/resources-collection/hex-trust-secures-singapore-custody-license" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">previously secured a licence</a> to provide custody services in September 2021. However, recent amendments to the Payment Services Act have now brought custody under the revised law’s jurisdiction.

<blockquote>
 “The Monetary Authority of Singapore upholds rigorous regulatory standards that balance fostering innovation with ensuring consumer protection. We are thrilled to strengthen our presence in Singapore – a vibrant hub for fintech innovation, renowned for its outstanding regulatory framework.” 
</blockquote>
