Kaiko Raises $110 Million in Funding Round Led by S&P Global

New York-based cryptocurrency data provider Kaiko has raised $110 million in a funding round led by S&P Global, highlighting growing interest among traditional financial institutions in digital asset market data. The round also attracted BNP Paribas, Nasdaq, Royal Bank of Canada, French state investor Bpifrance and U.S. trading firm Susquehanna.

Founded in France in 2014, Kaiko said it will use the fresh capital to strengthen its data business and expand its product offerings. The company currently provides market data covering more than 150 cryptocurrency exchanges and protocols, as demand rises for reliable information on increasingly interconnected digital asset markets.

The investment comes as banks, exchanges and other financial institutions show greater interest in tokenisation, which involves creating digital tokens representing traditional assets such as stocks and bonds. Although bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies have retreated from their late-2025 peaks, crypto exchanges continue to introduce products linked to traditional securities, while regulators have warned investors about potential risks. “As digital assets accelerate, S&P Global is investing for the future,” said Cathy Clay, CEO of S&P Dow Jones Indices.
