“There are few firms equipped to provide the next generation of prime services that sophisticated investors expect, and Brevan Howard’s trust in Ripple Prime is recognition of our strong competitive position and cross-asset capabilities,” Ripple Prime President Noel Kimmel said in the release.

The Wall Street Journal (WSJ) reported Wednesday (Oct. 7) that the announcement that Ripple Prime will provide these services to Brevan Howard is an example of how Ripple has broken into Wall Street.

Ripple has emerged as a player in financing leveraged exchange-traded funds (ETFs), a lucrative business that has been dominated by big banks. Ripple Prime is working with several ETF providers and expanding to hedge funds and other investment managers, according to the report.

“It’s definitely a growing and meaningful part of our business, so we are excited about it in that sense,” Kimmel told WSJ.
