HashKey MENA today announced the launch of HashKey Pro, a brand new institutional-grade comprehensive service platform designed to help licensed brokers, banks, asset management companies, and other professional institutions access digital asset trading and custody services through a compliant, secure, and highly operational framework.

HashKey Pro integrates several key institutional services into one platform, including order book trading, over-the-counter request for quote (OTC RFQ) trading, asset custody, omnibus account support, and API connections. This platform is tailored for institutional clients seeking a more stable trading infrastructure and looking to enter and expand in the digital asset market.

HashKey Pro supports a two-way fiat and digital asset deposit and withdrawal channel (on/off-ramp), and simultaneously supports large transactions through an OTC interface, with secure settlement within the platform. The platform also offers account structures and brokerage services tailored for professional institutions, meeting the needs of managing client funds or institutional capital flows.

Ben El-Baz, Managing Director of HashKey MENA, stated, “Institutional clients need infrastructure that truly aligns with how the institutional market operates. HashKey Pro was developed based on this demand, integrating compliant market access, asset custody, professional account structures, and technological connectivity into a single institutional-grade platform.”

The launch of HashKey Pro marks another significant progress for HashKey MENA in building institutional-grade digital asset infrastructure in the UAE and the broader Middle East region. The platform is aimed at various institutions planning to expand their digital asset business, providing them with high-quality service assurance, flexible operational models, and clear compliance guidance.

Designed for Institutional Business Processes

One of the core functions of HashKey Pro is its omnibus account structure, designed to support brokers, banks, and asset management institutions serving end clients. In this model, investors open accounts directly with financial institutions, which maintain a unified omnibus account on HashKey Pro, completing trading and custody operations through the platform.

In addition to trading and custody, HashKey Pro also provides:

• Institutional API solutions that support trading and client management

• Support for FIX protocol (including versions 4.4 and 5.0 SP2), with drop-copy functionality

• REST API and WebSocket access for seamless system integration

• 24/7 dedicated client support services

Compliant, Secure, and Scalable

HashKey Pro emphasizes security and risk control capabilities. The platform provides fully insured custody and has obtained dual certification through ISO 27001 and ISO 27701, with a comprehensive treasury management mechanism, including hot wallet asset security protection based on HSM (FIPS 140-2 Level 3 standard).

HashKey Pro is provided by HashKey MENA FZE, which has obtained a virtual asset service provider license (VASP) from the Dubai Virtual Assets Regulatory Authority (VARA), enabling it to conduct exchange services and brokerage trading services.

El-Baz remarked, “The premise for institutional participation in the digital asset market is trust in the underlying infrastructure. The design of HashKey Pro is aimed at providing the professional institutions with the necessary security, operational rigor, and regulatory clarity, allowing them to genuinely participate in the digital asset market.”

HashKey MENA stated that it will continue to expand the product capabilities of HashKey Pro in the future, launching more financial products.
