TAMPA, Fla., Aug. 25, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — AtlasClear Holdings, Inc. (NYSE American: ATCH) (“AtlasClear” or the “Company”), a technology-enabled financial services platform modernizing trading, clearing, settlement, and banking infrastructure, today announced that it will begin its strategic rebranding of its wholly owned correspondent clearing subsidiary, Wilson-Davis & Co., Inc., to AtlasClearing.

AtlasClearing will continue to operate under its existing SEC registration, FINRA membership, client relationships, custody arrangements, and operating infrastructure, upon completion of the rebranding.

The AtlasClearing brand will align Wilson-Davis & Co.’s historical legacy with its current trajectory as a technology-focused B2B infrastructure provider. The subsidiary is engineered to serve introducing broker-dealers, financial institutions, and market participants requiring fully disclosed correspondent clearing services supported by rigorous supervisory controls.

Continuity of Operations and Regulatory Infrastructure

AtlasClearing will operate under the same SEC registration and FINRA membership held continuously since 1968. For correspondent clients, client asset custody, supervisory frameworks, and operational relationships will continue without interruption. The rebrand will not change the regulated entity, its operations, or its custody arrangements.

Recent infrastructure upgrades, including the integration of Dawson James Securities and the execution of five total correspondent broker-dealer agreements as of the second quarter of 2026, have expanded multi-client clearing capacity and shortened onboarding timelines.

“With this rebrand, AtlasClearing will become the first visible expression of the AtlasClear Holdings platform’s operating leverage. One clearing infrastructure now supports multiple correspondents and will anchor the platform’s expansion into capital markets and banking,” said John Schaible, Executive Chairman of AtlasClear Holdings.

“For correspondent clients, this is about alignment, not disruption. The regulatory standing, custody arrangements, and supervisory frameworks that have served clients for nearly six decades carry forward in full. The AtlasClearing name will reflect the multi-client clearing infrastructure we operate today and the broader platform AtlasClear Holdings is building around it,” added Jeff Sime, CEO of Wilson-Davis & Co.

“Dawson James is live and four additional correspondent broker-dealers are in development. AtlasClearing’s multi-client clearing architecture will be scaling across the pipeline as designed,” said Craig Ridenhour, President of AtlasClear Holdings.

Integration Within the AtlasClear Platform

AtlasClearing will serve as a foundational component of AtlasClear Holdings’ integrated platform across the transaction lifecycle. Under the framework of “Trade. Clear. Settle. Bank.,” the AtlasClear platform will offer:

  • Correspondent clearing and trade execution services through AtlasClearing.
  • Institutional-grade custody and settlement infrastructure.
  • Capital markets and origination services through pending subsidiary acquisitions.
  • Integrated commercial banking capabilities under development, subject to pending regulatory review and approvals by the Federal Reserve and state banking authorities.

AtlasClearing will be the purpose-built clearing partner for introducing broker-dealers and the regional and emerging financial institutions underserved by legacy clearing providers.
