Ethereum staking for asset managers and funds
Develp offers Ethereum staking to funds, issuers of exchange-traded products (ETPs) and family offices. The custodian keeps control of the withdrawal credentials, and reports come by period and by validator.
What you need

Questions asset managers and funds ask
How do exits fit redemptions?
Exits go through the network's exit queue, which moves with demand. Exit planning starts at setup, and exits can be sent from the withdrawal address itself.
Does the custodian keep control?
Yes. The withdrawal credentials point to the custodian's address, the only place the stake can go.
Can we start with part of the fund's ETH?
Yes. You can start with a share and add more later, beside another operator or on its own.
How are fees set?
Per client, depending on the stake and the setup. The team goes through them on a call.
