OSL, Hong Kong's first licensed digital asset platform and a member of OSL Group (863.HK), demonstrates how institutional-grade infrastructure can transform digital asset markets. Through a long-standing partnership with AWS, OSL continues to power its growth trajectory across global markets. The sustained growth in digital asset values above $100,000 signals a fundamental shift in how major institutions view this asset class, with increasing adoption as a strategic reserve asset by leading corporations.

To meet this expanding institutional demand, OSL built a comprehensive custodian platform on AWS. This strategic technological foundation enables OSL to meet stringent regulatory requirements while improving operational efficiency. By leveraging AWS's global infrastructure, OSL reduced software deployment time by 89 percent - from 30 minutes to under 10 minutes - allowing the company to focus on product innovation. Today, OSL's established, robust, and scalable platform serves institutional clients across APAC and European markets, with 30 percent less management time required for operational oversight across its AWS infrastructure.

Opportunity | Global Expansion Through Regulated Infrastructure

OSL, a digital asset trading platform, provides brokerage, custody, exchange, and SaaS solutions to support the management and distribution of digital assets such as cryptocurrencies. Founded in 2018, OSL is known for its focus on regulatory compliance and security, setting industry benchmarks for the digital asset space.

The company's global expansion strategy required building infrastructure that could scale across multiple regulatory jurisdictions while maintaining consistent security standards. This infrastructure needed to support high-volume institutional trading and ensure regulatory compliance across diverse regional markets. The recent acquisition of Coinbest, a licensed exchange in Japan, marks a significant expansion into one of the most well-established markets in Asia. Combined with its acquisition in Europe, this lays a solid foundation for expanding OSL's presence outside Asia.

"The digital asset landscape has evolved beyond regional regulations into an irreversible and global order," explains Cheng Yun, CTO of OSL. "Our strategic acquisitions in Japan and Europe aren't just about geographical expansion — they're about creating an interconnected and regulated global ecosystem where institutional investors can operate seamlessly across markets. AWS's global infrastructure has been instrumental in bringing this seamlessly across markets."

A key challenge was ensuring that OSL's platform could maintain strict risk management requirements while delivering seamless trading operations across different regions. The company needed to establish high-availability infrastructure with low-latency performance that could scale with institutional demand. Additionally, OSL required solutions that would streamline compliance processes, enhance security protocols, and support broader institutional adoption.
