Hidden Road Expands Global Reach with Abu Dhabi Office Opening

Cryptocurrency and traditional asset brokerage firm Hidden Road is preparing for a significant move, opening an office in Abu Dhabi following Ripple’s acquisition of the company for $1.25 billion. This strategic expansion will be led by James Stickland, partner at Hidden Road, who already has received in-principle approval from the Abu Dhabi Global Market Financial Services Regulatory Authority (FSRA). The new office will focus on offering clearing and prime brokerage services to institutional investors within the UAE, subject to final regulatory approval.
