John Schaible, Executive Chairman, and Craig Ridenhour, President
AtlasClear Holdings, Inc.
NEW YORK, Nov. 11, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — PRISM MarketView today published an exclusive Q&A Corner feature with John Schaible, Executive Chairman, and Craig Ridenhour, President of AtlasClear Holdings, Inc. (NYSE American: ATCH), a technology-enabled financial services company modernizing trading, clearing, settlement, custody, and banking for small and mid-sized financial institutions.
In the interview, Schaible and Ridenhour outline how AtlasClear is building a vertically integrated platform designed to level the playing field for smaller firms long constrained by legacy systems and high clearing costs.
“We retired and converted more than $43 million of debt, cutting our de-SPAC liabilities by over 80 percent and strengthening stockholders’ equity by about the same amount,” said Schaible. “Cleaning up the capital structure while running a profitable subsidiary gives us the flexibility to invest and scale in the right areas.”
Ridenhour added, “For us, correspondent clearing is the gateway to scale. Smaller broker-dealers, RIAs, and family offices are often underserved by the big clearing houses. We give them institutional-grade infrastructure, automation, and compliance at a cost that makes sense for their business.”
The Q&A also highlights:
- AtlasClear’s continued growth in correspondent clearing, with three clients now signed and additional prospects in the pipeline.
- Progress toward Federal Reserve approval of its pending Commercial Bancorp of Wyoming acquisition, enabling the integration of banking and credit capabilities under one platform.
- The company’s commitment to advancing regulated digital asset infrastructure as a bridge between traditional finance and next-generation fintech solutions.
- Near-term priorities that include onboarding new clients, expanding automation, and increasing recurring, high-margin services.
AtlasClear recently released its Value Flywheel video, highlighting how each new client drives growth across trades, assets, lending, and profitability.
