The security framework of our Web Application was honored with an outstanding grade of “A”.
Per UnderDefense’s grading criteria, this “A” grade signifies that the security protocols at Finery Markets go beyond the “Industry Best Practice” standards. Overall security posture was deemed excellent, with only a handful of low-risk findings, all of which have been fully addressed and resolved by our product team.
The testing procedures were conducted in line with global standards, such as the Penetration Testing Execution Standard (PTES), the OWASP Top 10 Application Security Risks, the OWASP Web Security Testing Guide, and the Open Source Security Testing Methodology Manual (OSSTMM).

Finery Markets launched FM Liquidity Match
Finery Markets has recently gone live with FM Liquidity Match, a solution that enables market players to launch a fully electronic OTC trading business and manage client relations throughout the entire trade cycle.
The platform comes with a proprietary matching engine and operates through a sub-account model, allowing for easy customization and management of risk limits, positions, and trading history.
The product is offered as an electronic OTC-as-a-service that allows users to access liquidity for digital assets in an electronic and automated way. FM Liquidity Match has already onboarded Floating Point Group, a provider of trading infrastructure for digital assets, as its first user.
FM Liquidity Match utilizes a sub-account model to provide unique OTC trading experience for digital assets providers. Specifically, a master account is created by each broker, prime-broker, OTC-desk, or liquidity provider, which then opens multiple sub-accounts to serve the different segments of its client base via GUI or API.
