At CheckSig, client assets are entirely segregated from company funds, ensuring maximum protection from operational exposure and external threats. Unlike traditional financial institutions, which treat client deposits as liabilities on their balance sheet, CheckSig guarantees that clients retain exclusive ownership at all times. This custody model is purpose-built for security: assets remain fully isolated from any business activity, insulated from company obligations, and immune to internal or market-driven risks.
Asset segregation is not just a best practice; it is a legally binding protection embedded in CheckSig’s structure. Assets under custody are formally recognized as separate from company holdings, ensuring they are protected from any third-party claims, including potential creditor actions. This clear legal distinction reinforces client security by making assets untouchable in the event of financial stress or litigation, guaranteeing continuous accessibility and long-term preservation.
Transparency is a core component of asset protection. CheckSig provides independent Proof-of-Reserves to ensure that every asset held in custody is verifiable, accounted for, and secure. Clients can confirm their holdings at any time, with complete confidence that no asset is being reused or rehypothecated. This fully auditable approach eliminates the risks associated with fractional reserves and offers a clear, tamper-proof view of the custody status, ensuring integrity and full accountability.
CheckSig operates under rigorous regulatory oversight, adhering to the highest standards for financial custody and compliance. Our model is designed to meet the expectations of institutional investors, while offering individual clients the same level of protection and transparency. Independent audits, robust internal controls, and full legal alignment ensure that all client assets remain secure, properly segregated, and fully compliant with applicable regulations, delivering lasting trust in every custody relationship.
