About Elwood
Elwood is an institutional-grade digital asset platform that provides modular tools for trading, portfolio management, risk, and collateral operations. Its core value is unifying fragmented workflows across exchanges, custodians, and OTC desks into a single system, addressing the pain point of disconnected infrastructure and manual reconciliation in crypto operations.
In the past six months, Elwood has focused on integrating DeFi lending into institutional workflows. It partnered with Morpho to enable vault investments through its interface, with curators like Steakhouse and Gauntlet managing positions. This allows institutions to monitor on-chain lending alongside traditional CeFi holdings, with features like real-time risk alerts and automated P&L booking.
Elwood also prepared for CME Group's transition to 24/7 crypto futures and options trading in May 2026, ensuring its platform supports round-the-clock operations. The company emphasizes security and compliance, with no major negative events reported in the last two years.
