The chief operating officer of a large global asset manager shakes his head when asked if the firm has any exposure to bitcoin, which is up nearly 175% versus the US dollar year-to-date.

“We are prepared to allocate client money to new assets where we can properly model them, or where a third party offers some assurance that we’ll get the money back,” the COO explains.

Diginex, a Singapore-based exchange for digital assets, is aiming to give investors that assurance.
