Swiss-based digital asset banking group Sygnum announced on Monday that it “has taken a significant step toward its European expansion by registering its local subsidiary with the Liechtenstein financial regulator, FMA.” The announcement details:

The registration enables Sygnum to offer its regulated digital assets services, including brokerage, custody and B2B banking, to the Liechtenstein market.

“By establishing this presence in a European Economic Area (EEA) member, Sygnum is able to leverage the country’s harmonised regulations with the EU, including the incoming Markets in Crypto-Assets Regulation (MiCA),” the announcement adds.

This step is part of its broader strategy to expand across the European Union and European Economic Area, with full access to all 30 markets expected by early 2025 under MiCA. The move is significant as it allows Sygnum to offer its regulated services to a wider market through Liechtenstein’s harmonized regulatory framework with the EU.

The EEA is an economic region that includes EU member states and three countries—Liechtenstein, Norway, and Iceland—that follow EU laws and regulations while maintaining their independence from direct EU membership. Sygnum’s Chief Clients Officer, Martin Burgherr, said the registration marks a crucial step in expanding the bank’s services across this region, particularly as MiCA comes into effect. Burgherr opined:

We are excited to announce Sygnum’s expansion into Liechtenstein, a country known for its forward-thinking approach to innovations in finance and digital assets.

In addition to its European focus, Sygnum is also pursuing growth in Asia, including an expansion into Hong Kong and further development of its services through its Singapore-based platform.
