Binance Introduces Fund Accounts for Crypto Asset Managers

The platform’s new “Fund Accounts” feature allows crypto asset managers to pool investor assets into omnibus accounts. This setup closely mirrors the experience of traditional finance (TradFi).

This announcement from Binance aims to simplify operations and reduce administrative burdens for fund managers in the crypto space. It also introduces standardized processes to help streamline asset management.

Binance wants to Simplify Crypto Fund Management

Binance’s Fund Accounts introduce a much-needed feature for digital asset managers. These omnibus accounts allow managers to pool assets from multiple investors, making it easier to manage funds without the need for individual accounts for each investor. One of the key features of the Fund Accounts is the universal net asset value (NAV) per unit, a concept widely used in TradFi for tracking profits and losses.

“Asset management is a very mature and well-established industry in TradFi,” says Catherine Chen, Binance’s head of institutional and VIP. “In crypto, we think there’s a lot of demand for this particular expertise and infrastructure because, for the time being, the entry barriers and the learning curve remain relatively steep.”

The expected size of asset managers using Binance Fund Accounts can range from $1 million to $20 million in assets under management (AUM). With a transparent NAV, proof of reserves, and reduced operational complexity, these accounts offer a compelling option for both new and seasoned managers looking to bring their funds into the crypto space.
