According to a Financial News <a href="http://www.fnlondon.com/articles/brevan-howard-digital-targets-multi-billion-dollar-crypto-treasuries-a7762a8f?data=89236crypto89237news98273" target="_blank" rel="">report</a>, the new unit called BH Digital Solutions will be led by Chris Rayner-Cook, former head of trading and financing at <a href="https://crypto.news/tag/coinbase/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Coinbase</a>.

The launch comes as BH Digital, Brevan Howard’s crypto hedge fund which manages $2.3 billion, reported a 20% increase in assets under management in the first half of 2024. As crypto.news <a href="https://crypto.news/brevan-howards-crypto-fund-gains-20-hitting-2-3b-in-aum-report/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">reported</a>, since its launch in late 2021, BH Digital has seen its assets swell to $2.3 billion, with a more than 50% gain since its trading debut in March 2022.

As the financial landscape remains uncertain, an increasing number of companies are incorporating crypto into their balance sheets.
