Copper joins FINRA after SEC broker approval

• Copper’s US arm has joined FINRA after receiving SEC broker-dealer approval.
• The approval expands Copper’s regulated operations in the United States.
• The move highlights continued institutional development in crypto infrastructure.

Copper’s US arm has joined the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA) after receiving approval from the US Securities and Exchange Commission to operate as a broker-dealer.

The approval gives the company a regulated framework for expanding its US market operations.

The move comes as crypto infrastructure firms continue seeking regulatory approvals and institutional market access in the United States.

FINRA membership is required for broker-dealers operating within the US securities industry.

The approval could allow Copper to expand regulated services for institutional clients and digital asset market participants.

Copper provides custody, settlement, and trading infrastructure for institutional participants in digital asset markets.

The approval marks another regulatory step for crypto infrastructure companies seeking a broader presence in the US financial system.
