Dr. Adrian Cheng invests in CBCX to build a unified 'Traditional + Digital' Fintech Platform
HONG KONG – October 27th, 2025 – Renowned Hong Kong entrepreneur and investor Dr. Adrian Cheng, Founder of A2Z of ALMAD Group, has become a shareholder of CBCX, a London-headquartered multi-asset liquidity provider. This strategic investment will inject significant momentum and resources into CBCX’s growth across Asia-Pacific and the global market. The partnership will focus on expanding financial investment trading solutions for participants in the gold and foreign exchange industries, while deepening collaboration across commodities, stocks and brokerage services.
At the same time, CBCX is preparing to launch its Digital Asset Index, offering diversified crypto investment and hedging products for financial institutions, family offices, and individual investors. They will also jointly explore the issuance of digital gold and tokenised financial products, fostering deeper integration between traditional finance and the digital asset economy. Through this strategic alignment, CBCX aims to build a next-generation integrated financial ecosystem that spans traditional financial instruments, digital assets, and tokenised products — covering trading, investment, hedging, and wealth management.
As one of Asia’s most influential business leaders, Dr. Cheng is known for his forward-looking investments across real estate, technology, culture, and digital finance. His investment reflects strong confidence in CBCX’s vision to integrate traditional finance with digital innovation and redefine global asset liquidity. It also represents a milestone moment in uniting traditional finance with the emerging digital assets.
Building an Integrated Platform for Traditional and Digital Assets
Led by Vincent Pong and Andy Cheung, CBCX has long specialised in delivering top-tier liquidity and efficient trade execution services to global banks, brokers, asset managers, and individual investors. Backed by strong technology and a solid compliance framework, CBCX has grown into one of the world’s leading multi-asset liquidity providers.
As the company enters a new phase, CBCX is accelerating the development of an integrated financial ecosystem that bridges traditional and digital assets. Traditional assets: The platform supports efficient trading of a wide range of products including precious metals, forex, stocks, and commodities—offering professional investors stable and transparent access. Crypto assets: CBCX is rapidly expanding liquidity and trading infrastructure for major cryptocurrencies, strengthening its position in digital asset trading and management. Digital gold: Leveraging its expertise in gold market liquidity, CBCX is developing a dedicated digital gold trading platform, along with tokenisation services, to offer users a reliable and secure digital store of value.
Launching a Digital Wealth Management Platform to Bridge Traditional Allocation and Digital Growth
CBCX will soon launch its Digital Wealth Management Platform, tailored for high-net-worth individuals and institutional clients. The platform will offer diversified crypto asset management services under a strict compliance framework, supported by robust risk controls and data-driven investment strategies. By extending traditional asset allocation methodologies into the digital sphere, CBCX aims to help clients achieve sustainable growth and wealth preservation in the expanding digital economy.
Dr. Andy Cheung stated: “Dr. Adrian Cheng’s strategic investment not only affirms CBCX’s institutional-grade infrastructure and strong compliance record built over the past decade but also accelerates our transformation into a next-generation financial institution. This partnership represents the breaking down of barriers between traditional capital and emerging digital finance. Dr. Cheng’s involvement gives strong strategic backing to our global expansion and reflects growing confidence among traditional business leaders in the ‘traditional + digital’ financial model. Moving forward, with London and Hong Kong as dual hubs, CBCX will continue to integrate liquidity across asset classes, expand in areas like cross-asset trading, index-based investment, digital wealth management, and tokenised financial products—building a full-spectrum digital financial ecosystem for both institutional and individual investors.”

Altima CTO Sunil Jadhav: Solving Data Fragmentation & Lag for Brokers & Prop Firms
Altima CTO Sunil Jadhav: Solving Data Fragmentation & Lag for Brokers & Prop Firms
Altima CTO Sunil Jadhav sits down with Finance Magnates to discuss the core technology challenges facing CFD brokers and proprietary trading firms today.
Jadhav explains how the industry's reliance on batch processing and fragmented systems (where CRMs, risk tools, and trading platforms operate with separate 'sources of truth') leads to delayed data and inconsistent operational decisions. He argues that real-time event processing is essential for managing fast-moving trading activity and risk.
Learn how Altima's unified, event-driven architecture, connecting Altima CRM, Altima Prop, IB systems, and risk management through a single backbone, is designed to provide synchronous data and better operational coordination for modern brokerage and prop firm stacks.
Key Topics:
- Broker and Prop Firm Data Challenges
- The problem of delayed data processing (batch processing vs. real-time events)
- Fragmented systems and conflicting data sources
- Altima's unified, event-driven solution architecture
- The concept of a "risk-aware CRM"
- Built-in risk management in Altima Prop
