Membership reflects Kaiko’s commitment to supporting the development of digital finance infrastructure within Europe’s leading financial center.
Kaiko has joined Paris Europlace, the organization in charge of developing and promoting the Paris financial center internationally. The membership reflects Kaiko’s continued commitment to supporting the growth of institutional-grade digital asset markets and contributing to the Paris financial ecosystem.
Founded in 1993, Paris Europlace brings together over 600 stakeholders from the financial ecosystem – banks, insurance companies, asset managers, intermediaries, fintechs, industrial and commercial enterprises, consulting firms, law firms, and public actors – forming a unique network to advance the priorities of the Paris financial center. Its key focus areas include the attractiveness of the Paris financial center, sustainable finance, European regulation, infrastructure financing, and innovation.
Supporting Digital Finance in the Paris Financial Center
Digital transformation is reshaping every dimension of the financial industry, from new distribution and investment channels to data infrastructure, blockchain technology, and advanced analytics. Paris Europlace has made innovation a core priority, fostering synergies between established financial institutions and fintechs through its Finance Innovation arm and advocating for a regulatory environment that supports the development of digital finance across the European Union.
In March 2026, Paris Europlace published a strategic report on digital finance, underscoring the Paris financial center’s ambition to position itself at the forefront of this transformation.
Kaiko provides institutional-grade data, analytics, and indices across centralized and decentralized digital asset markets, covering spot and derivatives trading venues globally. As a Paris-founded company with deep roots in the French financial ecosystem, Kaiko’s membership in Paris Europlace reinforces its engagement with the institutions, regulators, and market participants shaping the future of digital finance in Europe.
“Joining Paris Europlace connects Kaiko to the network of institutions, regulators, and innovators driving the future of the Paris financial center. With the publication of Paris Europlace’s digital finance strategy and the implementation of MiCA across Europe, the timing is right for digital assets data providers and financial markets stakeholders to work together on the infrastructure that will underpin the next generation of capital markets,” said Philippe Redaelli, Managing Director Strategic Initiatives at Kaiko.
Bridging Crypto Market Data and Traditional Finance
The convergence between traditional finance and digital asset markets continues to accelerate, driven by regulatory frameworks like the Markets in Crypto-Assets Regulation (MiCA), growing institutional participation, and the expansion of tokenized financial products. Within this context, reliable market data, transparent pricing infrastructure, and robust analytics have become essential building blocks for safe and efficient markets.
Participation in Paris Europlace allows Kaiko to contribute its expertise in digital asset market data and infrastructure while collaborating with financial institutions, regulators, and policymakers working to strengthen the Paris financial center’s position in digital finance.
Looking Ahead
As digital asset markets mature and regulatory clarity improves across Europe, collaboration between data providers, financial institutions, and public actors will remain critical to building transparent, resilient, and competitive market infrastructure.
Kaiko’s membership in Paris Europlace marks another step in supporting the development of institutional-grade digital finance infrastructure from the heart of the Paris financial center.
