UnionEx, a prominent global cryptocurrency exchange, and Indonesia’s licensed digital asset platform CYRA (PT Cyrameta Exchange Indonesia) have officially signed a strategic partnership agreement in Jakarta. This collaboration signifies a major milestone in the expansion of compliant digital asset infrastructure across Southeast Asia.
This partnership establishes a new alliance between UnionEx and CYRA with the objective of building a fully licensed and locally regulated crypto trading platform within Indonesia. Under the terms of the agreement, UnionEx will contribute its advanced technology infrastructure, which includes a high-performance matching engine, a robust risk management system, and a scalable architecture. CYRA, holding the Digital Financial Assets Trader (PAKD) license from the Financial Services Authority (OJK), will spearhead local compliance, governance, and market development by leveraging its local resources and established partnerships.
The signing ceremony was attended by senior executives from both companies, underscoring a shared vision to foster transparency, innovation, and responsible growth within Indonesia's rapidly evolving digital economy.
“Indonesia stands as one of the most vibrant and rapidly growing digital asset markets in Asia,” stated Ben Jones, CEO of UnionEx. “Through this partnership with CYRA, we are merging UnionEx’s global expertise and technology with CYRA’s strong regulatory foundation to establish a next-generation, compliant trading environment tailored for local users. This represents a crucial step toward our mission of driving financial inclusion and empowering users through technology.”
The forthcoming launch of the regulated platform by UnionEx and CYRA is set to offer a seamless trading experience characterized by institutional-grade security, superior liquidity, and efficient execution. The platform will also feature integrated real-world asset (RWA) trading, establishing a new benchmark for compliant digital asset innovation in Indonesia.
“We are proud to collaborate with UnionEx, a leading global platform that shares our vision for a secure and sustainable digital asset ecosystem,” said Deddy S. Nadeak, CEO of CYRA. “Together, our aim is to redefine the trading experience in Indonesia by providing users with a fully licensed, secure, and user-centric exchange platform that adheres to regulatory standards while embracing global best practices.”
This strategic partnership highlights UnionEx’s commitment to deepening its presence in Southeast Asia, with Indonesia serving as a pivotal hub for its regional development. Moving forward, UnionEx also intends to enhance its institutional-grade offerings. This includes providing private-bank-level digital asset management services designed for institutions and family offices, covering the entire value chain from onboarding, funding, and trading to custody and asset management. This integrated approach is intended to equip professional clients with secure, efficient, and comprehensive digital financial solutions.
