We call the emergence of a trusted, secure and efficient digital asset economy Future Finance. Click on the video below to see an example, from a Sygnum Bank event, of how we are making this a reality, built on our three pillars of trust, technology, together.
Sygnum was founded on Swiss and Singaporean heritage in 2017 and Sygnum Bank became the first digital asset bank in 2019.
We are convinced that no single start-up, incumbent financial institution, association or technology solution can unilaterally pave the way from mainstream awareness to mainstream adoption of DLT-powered financial services. We believe that shaping the development of a digital ecosystem with trusted partnerships, fuelled by relentless client focus, will accelerate industry and community growth and enable impact.
Together with our network of partners, Sygnum aims to build a digital asset ecosystem and address the three key development opportunities for the financial sector:
1) Secure access and storage of digital assets
2) Safe and seamless issuance and efficient settlement of digital assets
3) A methodical and practical approach to integrate digital assets into today’s regulatory frameworks, in particular to address the compliance challenges such as those related to money laundering
We appreciate the transformative power and usefulness of DLT, but decentralisation is not a panacea. On the one hand, rules and regulations have been put in place for a reason – in most cases to protect the investor. This must continue. On the other hand, DLT is a trust and security engine that provides a great degree of control. Because of this, certain rules may become redundant, but not all of them.
Because we believe we are in a period of consolidation and transition, we seek to both maintain and uphold the highest regulatory standards and support their evolution as they embrace digital assets. We believe the future will reflect this heritage.
Yes. One of Sygnum’s founding strategies was to be fully regulated from day one in both Switzerland and Singapore. Sygnum holds a banking and securities dealer licence from the Swiss Financial Market Supervisory Authority (FINMA), and a Capital Markets Services (CMS) licence from the MAS in Singapore. In June 2023, Sygnum Singapore was granted in principle approval of a Major Payments Institutional Licence from the MAS. In December 2022, Sygnum expanded its offering into Luxembourg, and in March 2023 received a Financial Services Permission (FSP) from the Abu Dhabi Global Market (ADGM) Financial Services Regulatory Authority (FSRA).
Sygnum’s diverse team and number of employees is summarised here.
We successfully enable our clients to invest in the digital asset ecosystem, with our growing operations and offering.
We are constantly expanding our licence portfolio. We are holders of a Swiss universal banking licence, and capital markets services (CMS) and major payment institution licences (MPIL) granted by the Monetary Authority of Singapore, and we are adding additional licences as we expand internationally.
Sygnum serves as the trusted digital asset partner to an increasing number of clients. Today, we proudly serve ~1900 high-net-worth-individuals and institutional clients globally.
The 24/7 Sygnum banking platform serves as backbone of our offering. We currently support custody for 20 protocol tokens and stablecoins, and trading for another 8 protocol tokens, as well as 3 additional security tokens on SygnEX.
Shaping Future Finance requires high calibre talent. With strong growth since 2021, today we are more than 250 members who provide services across Switzerland, Singapore, UAE and Luxembourg.
Sygnum has regulated operations in the two high quality financial hubs of Zurich and Singapore, the first hub opened by a Swiss bank in the Metaverse, and we provide services in Luxembourg and United Arab Emirates (UAE). Our global team supports a diverse range of private, institutional and corporate clients in over 65 countries.
