FAQ

What is Sygnum’s B2B (Bank-to-Bank) service offering?

Our B2B services feature modular “plug-n-play” functionality to Sygnum’s full suite of integrated banking services, including bank-grade custody, brokerage, tokenization, lending and asset management. This includes dedicated Bank-to-Bank integration via APIs, crypto compliance advisory and education services, automated tools and tailored financial products.   

What is the time to market for implementation for Sygnum B2B clients?

Our modular “plug-n-play” services allows banks and VASPs to enable digital assets for their clients in less than 60 days. However, the starting point of our B2B partners is not always the same; many banks want to expand their investment offering by adding cryptocurrencies, others prefer to start with tokenization and make non-bankable assets bankable e.g. for succession planning, art, real estate and lending opportunities.

Whatever the partner banks’ strategic goals, once onboarded with Sygnum they can leverage any part of Sygnum’s offering to provide new products and services to their clients. Our partners typically start by expand their client offering via one or all of Sygnum’s “plug-n-play” services, and then drive efficiency and operational skills via our automated processes, crypto compliance tools and open APIs.  Learn more about these services here.

What is the trusted digital asset ecosystem that Sygnum is shaping?  

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
