Wholesale markets are venues where large quantities of goods, services, or financial instruments are traded between businesses. These markets facilitate transactions at a scale typically inaccessible to retail consumers, serving as intermediaries between producers and distributors or between institutional investors. They are characterized by high transaction volumes, specialized participants, and often lower unit costs compared to retail channels. Price discovery and liquidity provision are primary functions of these markets.
Context
Digital assets are beginning to influence traditional wholesale markets, creating new opportunities for efficient trading and settlement. The tokenization of real-world assets could significantly alter how institutional participants access and transact in these markets. Regulatory clarity and technological interoperability remain critical factors for the broader adoption of digital asset solutions within established wholesale market infrastructures.
