Custodial banking refers to financial services where an institution holds and manages assets on behalf of its clients. This service includes safeguarding digital assets, managing private keys, and executing transactions as directed by the client. The institution assumes responsibility for the security and integrity of the assets under its care. Clients retain ownership but delegate the operational control to the custodian.
