Swiss Crypto Bank Sygnum Launches Innovative Sygnum Select Service for Digital Asset Management

Sygnum Bank has officially launched Sygnum Select, a new discretionary mandate service focusing on the burgeoning digital asset treasury market.

Introduced on February 26, 2026, this service aims to merge traditional Swiss private banking practices with the rapidly evolving crypto landscape, targeting entities managing over $100 billion in digital assets.

The initiative debuts with live mandates and an active portfolio, with around $200 million already under management, showcasing strong initial interest.

Utilizing a traditional discretionary model, Sygnum Select grants the bank full authority over the strategic asset allocation, risk management, and ongoing portfolio adjustments for its clients.

The investment offerings are diverse, encompassing core crypto assets, staking, tokenized traditional securities, and innovative yield strategies.

Sygnum is committed to catering to institutional investors who seek a regulated banking experience while needing specialized expertise in digital assets.

Chief Investment Officer Fabian Dori noted a shift in demand, with crypto foundations and corporate treasuries now looking for comprehensive asset management beyond mere custody and trading.

At this moment, Sygnum Select is primarily available to clients based in Switzerland, with plans for global expansion later in 2026.

The portfolios managed under Sygnum Select include various asset types, from cryptocurrencies to derivatives and private market investments.

Risk oversight is a notable feature, with the bank implementing active rebalancing, Value-at-Risk monitoring, and tailored drawdown limits to ensure robust management of client assets.
