VersiFi operates a plug-and-trade platform that provides a single point of access for trading, borrowing and lending, alongside custody services via third-party partners. The company combines a platform with services aimed at helping institutions trade and borrow efficiently. Management is led by co-CEOs Sameer Shalaby and Martin Garcia. VersiFi offers both trading and lending functionality bundled with services and custody partnerships. The firm intends to use the new funding to launch a digital assets trading and lending business backed by institutional-grade technology and third-party custodian relationships. VersiFi raised $10M in a Series A to support these plans. VersiFi is a New York-based partner-powered digital asset prime services platform founded by president and CEO Sameer Shalaby. Its plug-and-trade platform brings together an ecosystem of trusted and regulated exchanges, liquidity providers, custodians and lenders. The platform is designed to streamline the trading lifecycle and mitigate single-firm counterparty risk to provide clients with a regulatory-compliant solution. VersiFi's partner-powered model leverages third-party regulated participants to offer full-service prime services. The company raised an undisclosed Seed round with participation from The Hunting Hill Group. The collaboration with that investor is intended to provide strategic guidance and support to drive product innovations and capture emerging trends.
