Binance Expands OTC Liquidity for Institutions Binance is strengthening its focus on institutional and high-net-worth clients. On August 28, the exchange introduced upgrades to its OTC liquidity and execution services. The improvements aim to reduce slippage and provide better pricing for large trades. The system now aggregates liquidity not only from Binance’s internal pools but also from external market makers. By sourcing real-time prices externally, traders gain access to more liquidity, tighter spreads, and lower execution costs. Faster Settlement and Bespoke Execution Binance will now offer two distinct trade execution models. Instant settlement: OTC trades can be settled in as little as 15 minutes. Bespoke execution: Custom execution strategies powered by Binance’s proprietary algorithms. Catherine Chen, Head of VIP & Institutional at Binance, noted that the tailored approach is designed to optimize the crypto experience for both high-net-worth individuals and institutional players. Institutional Demand on the Rise Binance reported a strong uptick in its institutional client base. In the first half of 2025, the number of VIP users grew 21% while institutional clients rose 20% compared to last year. Trading volumes for these groups also increased by 10% and 12%. Chen emphasized Binance’s commitment: “We are enhancing our execution capabilities alongside our other offerings to ensure we continue to be well-positioned to support our institutional clients’ growing demand for exposure to crypto.”
