Digital prime broker GCEX has introduced GB Yield, a stablecoin based yield solution tailored exclusively for professional and institutional clients. The product has been developed under the firm’s GlobalBlock trading brand and is structured to provide access to institutional grade yield opportunities using reserve backed stablecoins.
According to the company, GB Yield is designed to generate returns through structured lending arrangements and approved yield bearing instruments rather than exposure to cryptocurrency price movements. The strategy does not take directional positions in assets such as bitcoin or ethereum and does not rely on leverage or speculative trading activity.
Client capital is allocated across a diversified portfolio of high quality stablecoins and deployed through two primary channels. These include structured lending agreements with established regulated counterparties and selected yield bearing instruments that have passed GlobalBlock’s internal governance review. Returns are expected to arise from contractual arrangements rather than market volatility.
The solution operates within GCEX Group’s governance and risk management framework and is aligned with the European Union’s Markets in Crypto Assets regulation. The firm stated that the structure incorporates defined counterparty selection criteria, exposure limits, liquidity controls and ongoing monitoring throughout the investment lifecycle.
Lars Holst, Chief Executive of GCEX Group, said the launch represents the first in a series of new institutional focused products following the company’s acquisition of GlobalBlock in September 2025. He emphasized that the strategy prioritizes transparency, counterparty quality and institutional risk standards rather than speculative return generation.
Liquidity management is built around a standard 30 day lock up period. The company said this structure is intended to balance capital deployment efficiency with orderly access to funds. GB Yield is not available to retail investors and is subject to jurisdictional restrictions, onboarding procedures and compliance requirements.
GCEX noted that target returns are not guaranteed and may vary depending on market conditions and counterparty performance. Capital remains at risk, consistent with institutional investment products.
Headquartered in London, GCEX provides liquidity in contracts for difference on digital assets and foreign exchange, as well as spot trading and digital asset conversion services. The firm also offers brokerage and crypto infrastructure technology through its XplorDigital suite, which includes plug and play solutions designed to integrate regulated custody, liquidity access and risk management tools.
GCEX is regulated by the United Kingdom Financial Conduct Authority, authorized under the European Union’s MiCA framework as a crypto asset service provider and holds a virtual asset service provider license from Dubai’s Virtual Assets Regulatory Authority. The company positions GB Yield as part of a broader effort to meet growing institutional demand for structured stablecoin based strategies within regulated environments.
