As part of the onboarding, Sage Capital will serve as a prime broker to EDXM International, to allow clients spanning hedge funds, asset managers, family offices and brokers with access to the perpetual futures contracts available on the venue.
Notably, institutional investors will be able to trade across 44 trading pairs, such as Bitcoin, Ethereum, Solana and XRP.
Kal Chan, head of institutions at EDXM International, said: “Sage Capital is a rapidly growing digital asset prime broker, recognised for delivering secure, seamless, and compliant access to the digital asset market. We are pleased to welcome them as a member of EDXM International and look forward to working together to provide reliable liquidity solutions while further expanding our institutional client base.”
The new offering is expected to provide benefits such as credit intermediation, collateral management and net settlement processes, to enhance overall capital efficiency.
Moreover, the addition of Sage Capital is also set to offer robust risk management through access to capabilities such as a non-custodial trading venue supported by a central clearinghouse and bankruptcy-remote client segregated accounts.
The move follows the launch of EDXM International as a perpetual futures exchange in July 2025, backed by global financial partners including Citadel Securities, Fidelity Digital Assets, Charles Schwab and Virtu Financial.
Nathan Sage, chief executive at Sage Capital, said: “EDXM International is backed by some of the world’s most established financial institutions, and we are delighted to be providing a gateway to such a credible venue. Our partnership with EDXM International reinforces our strategy of providing institutional clients with high quality access to digital asset markets.”
