Kraken launches crypto derivatives in Europe
Kraken has introduced Kraken Embed, a new
Crypto-as-a-Service (CaaS) product. It is designed for neobanks, fintech
companies, and traditional banks. The service allows institutions to offer
cryptocurrency trading to their customers.
Earlier this month, Kraken
expanded beyond crypto by launching FX perpetual futures for EUR/USD and
GBP/USD. Available on Kraken Pro, the new instruments allow 24/7 trading of
major currency pairs for the first time on the platform. Unlike traditional FX
products, these contracts do not expire and trade continuously.
New Service Enables Fast Crypto Market Entry

“Our Crypto-as-a-Service solution enables a wide range of
financial institutions to efficiently meet growing client demand without the
complexity and overhead of running their own marketplace,” said Brett McLain,
Head of Payments and Blockchain at Kraken.
Kraken Embed reduces the need for extensive operational and
technical development. It enables institutions to provide crypto services
within weeks. Kraken says the solution uses its existing liquidity, technical
infrastructure, and regulatory experience.
The first public integration of Kraken Embed is with bunq, a
European neobank. Kraken plans to announce more partnerships soon.
Founded in 2011, Kraken supports trading in over 370 digital
assets. It is considered one of the most liquid crypto exchanges in the market.
With Kraken Embed, the company aims to help financial institutions meet growing
customer demand for crypto products.
The launch comes as global adoption of crypto is rising. In
Europe, regulations such as MiCA are providing clearer rules for the market. According
to Kraken, its infrastructure is positioned to support institutions in this
environment.

Executive Interview | Charlotte Bullock | Chief Product Officer, Bank of London | FMLS:25
In this interview, we sat down with Charlotte Bullock, Head of Product at The Bank of London, previously at SAP and now shaping product at one of the sector’s most ambitious new banking players.
Charlotte reflects on the Summit so far and talks about the culture inside fintech banks today. We look at the pressures that come with scaling, and how firms can hold onto the nimble approach that made them stand out early on.
We also cover the state of payments ahead of her appearance on the payments roundtable: the blockages financial firms face, the areas that still need fixing, and what a realistic solution looks like in 2026.

In this conversation, we sit down with Drew Niv, CSO at ATFX Connect and one of the most influential figures in modern FX.
We speak about market structure, the institutional view on liquidity, and the sharp rise of prop trading, a sector Drew has been commenting on in recent months. Drew explains why he once dismissed prop trading, why his view changed, and what he now thinks the model means for brokers, clients and risk managers.
We explore subscription-fee dependency, the high reneging rate, and the long-term challenge: how brokers can build a more stable and honest version of the model. Drew also talks about the traffic advantage standalone prop firms have built and why brokers may still win in the long run if they take the right approach.
