B2C2, the London-based provider of institutional liquidity and credit for digital assets, is expanding its presence in the Asia-Pacific region with a new offering in Singapore. This move builds on the company's operations in Japan and other financial centers.
As part of this expansion, B2C2 has announced that it will apply for a Master Payment Institution license from the Monetary Authority of Singapore.
Backed by SBI Japan's financial services group, B2C2 provides institutional clients with credit, deep liquidity, competitive pricing and market-leading settlement services.
The company has offices in London, Paris, Luxembourg, New Jersey, Tokyo and now Singapore.
David Rogers, who has 24 years of experience in digital assets and traditional finance, will lead B2C2's expanded operations in the region as CEO of Asia Pacific.
Previously, Rogers served as Chief Operating Officer at an algorithmic trading and market making firm focused on digital assets and held senior positions at State Street Global Advisors and UBS in the Asia-Pacific region.

Thomas Restout, CEO of the B2C2 Group said:
“B2C2 has a long-standing connection to Asia through our partnership with SBI. As a leading financial hub both regionally and globally, Singapore was a logical choice to expand our footprint in APAC.
David brings a wealth of expertise to the role of CEO and we look forward to helping him grow our operations in the region.”
David Rogers
David Rogers, CEO Asia-Pacific said:
“I am delighted to lead the Asia-Pacific team at B2C2. The company's strong balance sheets, unmatched liquidity, and broad pricing and credit capabilities make it the primary counterparty of choice for financial institutions worldwide.
With an already very strong APAC team, we will increase this in Singapore, which is well on its way to becoming an international hub for regulated digital asset trading. We are excited to work with regulators and partners to grow this ecosystem.”
