ARP Digital Holdings Partners to Enhance Wealth Management Services

ARP Digital Holdings, a prominent digital asset firm based in Bahrain, has announced a strategic partnership with DV Trading and Centaur Markets to enhance its wealth management offerings. This collaboration aims to develop structured products in digital assets, targeting clients both regionally and globally. Additionally, ARP Digital has appointed Anestis Arampatzis as its inaugural Group Chief Investment Officer, tasked with spearheading these initiatives.

The partnership will see ARP Digital Holdings launch a variety of structured products tailored for digital assets. Initially, these offerings will be available to clients in the Middle East through ARP Digital Bahrain B.S.C., pending regulatory approvals. DV Trading will serve as a dedicated liquidity provider and market maker via its Centaur Markets desk, ensuring robust market support for these products.

Abdulla Kanoo, Co-CEO of ARP Digital Holdings, highlighted the significance of this collaboration, stating, “This partnership represents a significant milestone for ARP Digital Holdings as we scale our global reach and product depth.” He noted that the move builds on the launch of the region’s first digital asset-linked structured product in 2024, aiming to create regulated products that merge digital assets with traditional finance. This approach is expected to attract a wider range of institutional investors.

Arampatzis, previously Co-Head of Centaur Markets, expressed enthusiasm about his new role. “The market for regulated digital wealth management products is growing rapidly in the Middle East,” he said. “This growth is driven by regulatory clarity and increasing adoption by institutions and sophisticated investors.”

The partnership between ARP Digital Holdings and DV Trading reflects a mutual goal to deliver institutional-grade solutions combined with disciplined risk management. This collaboration merges ARP Digital’s established client network with DV Trading’s expertise in derivatives and market-making, creating an advantageous platform for investors seeking enhanced risk-adjusted returns across both digital and traditional markets.

Jared Vegosen, Co-Founder of the DV Group of Companies, emphasized the potential of the partnership, stating, “We are pleased to partner with ARP Digital Holdings. This collaboration will expand our ability to reach new institutional markets and deploy our structured product expertise at greater scale.”

Co-CEO Abdulaziz Kanoo reiterated the broader ambitions of this venture, emphasizing the importance of providing differentiated and customizable investment products. He welcomed Arampatzis and his team, noting that their expertise aligns with ARP Digital’s vision for the future of digital asset wealth management.

ARP Digital Holdings operates multiple digital asset businesses in the Middle East, including ARP Digital Bahrain B.S.C., which is licensed as a Category 3 Broker-Dealer by the Central Bank of Bahrain. In 2024, ARP Digital launched the region’s first structured product offering in collaboration with the National Bank of Bahrain.

In addition to its growing portfolio, ARP Digital Holdings is co-founded by Abdulaziz and Abdulla Kanoo, who previously led operations for one of Asia-Pacific’s largest digital asset market-making and wealth management firms. The organization is chaired by Yusuf Alireza, Founder and CEO of ARP Global Capital.

As the market for digital assets continues to evolve, initiatives like this partnership position ARP Digital Holdings at the forefront of innovation, aiming to redefine wealth management in a digital age.
