BRISBANE, October 28, 2021– Monochrome Asset Management welcomes global accounting giant KPMG as fund accountant for flagship wholesale bitcoin fund.
Australia’s leading digital asset-focused investment management firm, Monochrome has welcomed KPMG as fund accountant to further develop a robust reconciliation process and achieve strategic initiatives relating to their flagship product the Monochrome Bitcoin Fund (MBF).
Amanda Price, Partner in Charge at KPMG Ventures and Head of High Growth Ventures said “Monochrome, founded by CEO Jeff Yew, is regarded in the alternative investment sector as the investment manager that specialises in regulated products into digital assets.
“It’s great to be working with another business in such a fast-emerging category,” she added.
Engaging with the accounting firm’s High Growth Ventures team, Monochrome joins the likes of global giants Square, AfterPay and Canva as it continues to drive the case for digital asset investment in Australia.
“Having KPMG partner with Monochrome further solidifies our firm as the definitive pair of hands for secure and regulated exposure to bitcoin for the wholesale and fiduciary market,” said CEO Jeff Yew.
