Anchorage Joins AIMA, Contributes to First-Ever Digital Asset Custody Report

Today, we are excited to share that Anchorage Digital has become a member of the Alternative Investment Management Association, AIMA.

AIMA, representing over 2,100 corporate members in more than 60 countries, brings real-world expertise from its members to inform decision-makers in the alternative investment space and raise public awareness of the industry through research, education, and advocacy.

“As more institutional capital flows into digital assets, the alternative investment landscape is in the midst of a true transformation. Organizations like AIMA will play an important role in navigating that future. Pioneering is part of Anchorage’s DNA, so we’re proud to partner with AIMA as alternative investments are redefined in the digital age.”

— Diogo Mónica, Co-Founder and President of Anchorage Digital

“Anchorage represents some of the world’s largest and most renowned institutional clients, making them a natural fit for AIMA. They’re already stepping up to the plate by contributing to our first-ever Digital Asset Custody Report, which we look forward to unveiling to the world in March.”

— Jack Inglis, CEO of AIMA

The rise of digital assets as a form of alternative investment means that more institutions are considering adding crypto to their portfolios, and we’ve seen that momentum firsthand at Anchorage. Last year, an AIMA study found that a sizable 47% of all traditional hedge funds “have entered or plan to enter the crypto market,” with those already invested in crypto indicating–by an overwhelming majority–intent to further bolster their digital asset holdings.

As the first federally-chartered digital asset bank in the United States, Anchorage stands out as one of the group’s most regulated crypto representatives. Our experience working with federal regulators is unparalleled–and we look forward to sharing that unique point of AIMA in the months ahead.
