Announced on February 26, 2026, Sygnum Select targets crypto foundations, corporate treasuries, and ultra-high-net-worth individuals who currently manage over $100 billion in “unmanaged” digital assets. The service launches with live mandates and active portfolios, including approximately $200 million already under management. By applying a traditional discretionary model, Sygnum takes full execution authority to manage strategic asset allocation, risk oversight, and active rebalancing for its clients.
The investment universe for Sygnum Select is broad, covering everything from core crypto assets and staking to tokenized traditional securities and market-neutral yield strategies. The bank aims to bridge the gap for institutional investors who require the legal certainty and rigorous compliance of a regulated Swiss bank while seeking crypto-native investment expertise.
“ Crypto foundations and corporate treasuries are no longer simply looking for custody and trading… they want a trusted, regulated counterparty who can actively manage their assets,” says Fabian Dori, Sygnum Chief Investment Officer.
