Ang brings extensive experience across financial regulation, digital assets, public policy, and institutional market development. She joins BitGo from blockchain intelligence firm TRM Labs, where she served as Head of APAC Public Policy and Strategic Partnerships and helped drive the firm’s regional expansion as part of its founding APAC team. Prior to TRM, Ang spent more than a decade at the Monetary Authority of Singapore, where she led the team that built and operationalized Singapore’s payments and crypto licensing regime.
“We believe that Angela’s appointment strengthens BitGo’s leadership in one of the world’s most important regions for institutional digital asset adoption,” said Jody Mettler, Chief Operating Officer of BitGo and President of BitGo Bank & Trust, National Association. “Her experience at the intersection of regulation, market infrastructure, and commercial growth is highly relevant as institutions look for trusted partners that can meet the standards of a regulated financial system. Angela brings the judgment, credibility, and regional expertise to lead BitGo’s next phase of growth across APAC.”
Singapore serves as a strategic hub for BitGo’s APAC business and a leading global center for regulated digital asset activity. BitGo Singapore Pte. Ltd. is regulated by the Monetary Authority of Singapore as a Major Payment Institution. Ang’s appointment underscores BitGo’s continued investment in Singapore and the broader APAC region, and reflects the importance of local regulatory expertise as institutions increasingly seek secure, compliant infrastructure to participate in digital asset markets.
“BitGo has built its reputation by focusing on the requirements that matter most to institutions: security, compliance, resilience, and trust,” said Angela Ang. “Singapore has established one of the world’s most respected regulatory frameworks for digital assets, and APAC is entering an important phase of institutional market development. I am excited to join BitGo and work with our teams, clients, and partners to expand access to safe, scalable, and regulated digital asset solutions across the region.”
Ang’s appointment follows BitGo’s continued expansion of its global regulated platform. As a public company and federally regulated digital asset infrastructure company, BitGo serves institutions seeking secure access to custody, wallets, trading, financing, settlement, staking, and stablecoin infrastructure.
