Hong Kong-Based Crypto Unicorn Amber Group Eyes US Listing: Report
The financial services firm’s offering may raise regulatory eyebrows in the U.S.
Автор Jamie Crawley
Crypto financial services firm Amber Group is weighing a direct listing, with the U.S as the “likely destination,” according to its CEO.
- A direct listing is “on the table” in the next two years, Michael Wu said in an interview with South China Morning Post.
- “The U.S is a likely destination, but we’re open-minded,” he said.
- Aspects of Amber’s plans may raise regulatory concern in the U.S. Amber allows customers to earn interest on crypto holdings by lending to other clients at a higher rate. Publicly listed crypto exchange Coinbase recently aborted plans to launch a similar service after the Securities and Exchange Commission threatened to sue it for offering what it considered to be an unregistered security product.
- Amber Group also offers algorithmic, high-frequency and over-the-counter trading to institutional clients and has operations in Hong Kong, Taiwan, South Korea and Canada.
- The company attained unicorn status in June following a $100 million funding round that gave it a valuation of $1 billion. Its investors include Tiger Global Management, Coinbase Ventures and Blockchain.com.
