According to Kunal Bhasin, a partner and leader at KPMG Canada’s Digital Assets practice, one of the primary reasons institutional investors are increasingly attracted to crypto is rising debt and increasing inflation.


A recent KPMG survey revealed that nearly 40% of institutional investors reported having direct or indirect exposure to crypto assets in 2023 — up from 31% in KPMG’s 2021 study.Institutional investors’ exposure to cryptocurrencies. Source: KPMG


Out of the 65 respondents who participated in the KPMG study, 31 identified as institutional investors, most managing more than $500 million in assets, while the remaining 34 were financial services organizations.


The survey further found that one-third of the institutional investors have allocated 10% or more of their portfolios to crypto assets — up from a fifth two years ago. Maturing market and improved custody infrastructure are key drivers behind increased client demand for crypto asset services.
