About This List
The BeInCrypto Institutional 100 — Multi-Asset Brokers (2026 Long List) identifies brokers and bank-brokerage platforms bringing crypto into wider trading accounts. These firms offer crypto exposure alongside traditional assets, including equities, FX, ETFs, futures, bonds, and CFDs.
The long list covers brokers, Swiss- and European-bank-backed platforms, US wealth managers, and CFD-led operators building spot crypto venues or integrated crypto access. Firms focused only on digital asset trading are evaluated separately under dedicated broker, exchange, and trading infrastructure categories.
Methodology
This category evaluates multi-asset brokers under Track B of the BeInCrypto Institutional 100 methodology: 30% editorial quantitative metrics, 50% Expert Council scoring, and 20% disclosed data.
Assessment spans seven criteria: crypto coverage, execution quality, cross-asset integration, volume and adoption, regulatory standing, innovation, and industry standing.
Data was verified using regulator registers, audited filings, company disclosures, transparency pages, partner integrations, and private-market sources, including PitchBook, Tracxn, and Crunchbase. Figures reflect the most recent available data at the time of publication.
