Naser Taher, Founder and Chairman of MultiBank Group, said: “MultiBank Exchange represents a significant expansion of the Group’s role in institutional financial markets. We are bringing together the technology, liquidity and settlement infrastructure that institutions need to participate more effectively in global trading. Our ambition is to address access barriers across emerging markets and build stronger connections between these markets and the international financial system. Dubai Future Finance Week provides an opportunity to discuss this directly with clients and prospective partners.”

MultiBank Exchange is the first interbank trading platform in emerging markets to support settlement in crypto digital assets. It also combines institutional liquidity with settlement services through the Group’s regulated subsidiaries in Australia, Singapore and the UAE, an integrated offering that is unique among interbank trading exchanges worldwide.

Mohammed Al Hakim, Vice Chairman of MultiBank Group, said: “The technical focus is on connecting execution with the credit and settlement arrangements required to complete a transaction. Our matching engine operates at 400 nanoseconds, while the platform brings together pricing from multiple institutional liquidity providers. Support for double exotic currency pairs, alongside fiat and digital asset settlement, extends the options available to counterparties trading across different markets.”

The platform serves banks, financial institutions, hedge funds, family offices and derivatives brokers, offering access to more than 250 currencies through a network providing the world’s deepest liquidity and tightest spreads. MultiBank Group is also the world’s only financial derivatives institution supplying its own liquidity to its trading platforms.

MultiBank Exchange has also signed a memorandum of understanding with the Government of Kazakhstan, paving the way for interbank settlement in digital currencies and supporting its broader objective of connecting conventional foreign exchange markets with digital settlement infrastructure.
