Kraken Offers Custom DeFi Vaults for Institutional Clients

Kraken Institutional has formed a partnership with Upshift to offer custom DeFi vaults for yield generation. This service is designed for institutional clients, allowing them to generate yield on custodied digital assets through tailored DeFi strategies.

The collaboration involves building dedicated vaults that are customized to each client's investment strategy, risk tolerance, liquidity requirements, and asset composition. This approach moves beyond standard yield products by offering institutional-grade flexibility and control over DeFi exposure.

The vaults will be managed through Upshift's on-chain yield infrastructure, which integrates with Kraken's custody and trading services. This allows clients to maintain their assets under Kraken's security framework while accessing decentralized finance opportunities.
