[Huobi Group](<http://www.huobigroup.com/>), a blockchain asset financial solutions provider, has announced the launch of Institutional Trading.

With this, the company is offering professional account benefits to a limited group of users. For the first phase of recruitment, Huobi is limiting its services to 100 institutional clients and 10 deposit-withdrawal deals on a first come, first serve basis.

The services include exclusive channels for institutions to ensure safe, compliant and rapid deposit and withdrawal of high-value assets; allowing up to 1,000 sub-accounts enabling institutions to trade with multiple positions and strategies, customized withdraw and loan limit; exclusive customer service manages to provide on-call support service; access to research reports from Huobi Research and Huobi Quant Academy, and much more.

The announcement comes on the heels of the launch of Huobi’s cryptocurrency exchange platform in [Australia](<https://www.econotimes.com/Huobi-Group-launches-cryptocurrency-exchange-platform-in-Australia-1399521>) last month. In May, Huobi.Pro, Huobi’s international trading platform, launched ‘[Huobi 10 Index’](<https://www.econotimes.com/HuobiPro-launches-cryptocurrency-index-HUOBI-10-1327197>) – a composite price index that will track 10 popular coins that are traded against USDT (USD Tether) on its platform.

The company is also going big on blockchain and has announced a number of initiatives in the past couple of months. This includes the [launch of “Huobi Cloud”](<https://www.econotimes.com/Huobi-launches-cloud-business-arm-to-facilitate-building-digital-asset-exchanges-1406009>) – Huobi’s cloud business arm which will enable its partners to build secure and stable digital asset exchanges quickly; [Huobi Blockchain Plus Industry Alliance](<https://www.econotimes.com/Huobi-to-set-up-Blockchain-Plus-Industry-Alliance-1406847>) – an initiative to deepen the integration of blockchain and other industries; its first public and decentralised blockchain, [Huobi Chain](<https://www.econotimes.com/Cryptocurrency-exchange-Huobi-to-develop-own-public-blockchain-1353315>); and a $1 billion global [blockchain industry fund](<https://www.econotimes.com/Huobi-Labs-to-set-up-1B-blockchain-fund-1287091>), among others.

Huobi is currently the fourth largest cryptocurrency exchange on the basis of 24-hour trading volume, according to the data from [CoinMarketCap](<https://coinmarketcap.com/exchanges/volume/24-hour/>).
