Coinbase Asset Management (CBAM), the institutional arm of Coinbase Global, has entered a strategic partnership with Apollo Global Management to introduce stablecoin-based credit strategies for qualified investors.
The collaboration aims to merge the stablecoin, private-credit, and tokenization sectors, creating high-quality, blockchain-native credit opportunities. CBAM will leverage Apollo’s credit underwriting and tokenization expertise to build innovative lending and investment products, expected to launch in 2026.
The firms plan to offer over-collateralized asset loans, corporate direct lending secured by digital collateral, and tokenized credit holdings backed by Apollo-managed portfolios. Each strategy will comply with GENIUS-Act standards, featuring transparent audits and 1:1 reserves.
