At Banxa, our aim is to be the regulated partner for cryptocurrency exchanges and digital only businesses - acting as the bridge to the world of traditional finance and payments. We continue to expand both our client base and our product offering to support these clients. Our sustained and continued growth reflects our success in meeting our customers' needs."

Mr. Malcolm has a proven track record of building and scaling digital ventures.

Holger Arians, CEO of Banxa said "I am happy to welcome Dave Malcolm to the team as CMO. His experience will be invaluable in growing Banxa to the next level. It is critical for our partners and the industry to understand the value and scope of what we are building. Our aim is to be a responsible, long term actor in the sector.
