Caladan Announces Options and Structured Products Desk

Caladan Expands Crypto Options and Treasury Solutions with New OTC Desk for Institutional Investors

Caladan, a leading digital asset trading group, is excited to announce the launch of its over-the-counter (OTC) options desk, offering tailored crypto options and treasury solutions for institutional and accredited investors.

Strategic Move Into Crypto Treasury Solutions and Structured Products

Caladan’s move into structured products is a strategic advancement that aligns with its ongoing partnerships in the crypto ecosystem. This new direction builds on Caladan’s established expertise in crypto venture capital and market-making, bringing greater synergy to its existing services.

“For years, we have supported crypto startups at their earliest stages with venture capital, and also helped with token listings through our comprehensive crypto market-making across both centralized and decentralized platforms,” said John Gu, CEO of Caladan. “With the addition of crypto treasury solutions, we are deepening our engagement with token foundations and institutional investors, empowering them to protect and grow their investments.”

Appointment of Remi Colinmaire as Head of Crypto Options Trading

To lead this new initiative, Caladan has appointed Remi Colinmaire as Head of Options Trading.

Based in Caladan’s Singapore office, Colinmaire brings over two decades of expertise in options and volatility trading. He began his career as an options market maker at BNP Paribas and has held senior roles as a Managing Director at Goldman Sachs and as a Portfolio Manager at AlphaDyne Asset Management, specializing in index volatility trading.

“I’m thrilled to join Caladan to expand the crypto options and structured products business,” said Colinmaire. “The digital assets options market, though emerging, shows significant potential as more institutional investors and sophisticated players look to leverage capital-efficient financing through structured crypto products.”

Broad Range of Crypto Treasury and Options Products Now Available

As a specialist in altcoins, Caladan is introducing a comprehensive range of crypto options and treasury solutions designed for long-tail tokens, including hedging strategies, yield generation products, and other structured offerings.

These solutions allow token foundations and institutional investors to hedge and generate returns on their holdings through innovative crypto OTC options for sizable transactions.

“Token foundations and institutional investors often prefer to hold onto their assets, seeing long-term value in the projects,” said Will Leung, Caladan’s Head of Business Development. “We’re witnessing growing demand for crypto treasury solutions that combine market-making strategies with hedging, giving investors capital protection and yield-generation opportunities.”

More information on hedging and protection strategies may be found on the Caladan website.

Caladan Group’s structured products solutions will only be available to institutions and accredited investors subject to strict customer due diligence. These products are not offered to retail investors or the general public in Singapore.
