What is Custody?
Custody in the terms of financial sector means that “It is the service provided by the company who safeguards the user funds and update the details of the balance to the users in the regular interval.
For example, in the cryptocurrency market, when A trades 10 bitcoins to B, A and B don’t meet and transact directly (B giving fiat currency to A). In this case, they both have a custodian(bitcoin trading site), which takes care of managing their accounts in fiat and crypto, and updates their respective balances with the new transaction.
