As a public company held to the high standards of Canadian regulation, GlobalBlock has to prove custody as one of many measures associated with its independently audited accounts.

GlobalBlock has robust security and custody measures in place to ensure clients' funds are protected. Clients' assets remain safe and easily accessible for trading or transferring purposes.

David Thomas, CEO of GlobalBlock, said:

"As a highly experienced team of financial services professionals who have had long and successful careers building FCA businesses in the UK, we founded GlobalBlock using the same disciplines and principles. GlobalBlock has never deployed any client funds in any way other than directed by its clients. Working for our clients is central to our service driven ethos. Our focus on customer service provides our clients with reassurance that an expert is always just a telephone call away.

"We are also pleased to see that despite the continued 'Crypto Winter', our trading app continues to prove popular with downloads onto new Apple and Android devices."
