Deutsche Bank close to debuting crypto custody for institutions

In this news:

Deutsche Bank’s (DB) digital asset custody service is set to go live by the end of the year.

Germany’s largest bank said the service, subject to the completion of applicable regulatory checks, will give European institutional and corporate clients regulated custody of digital assets.

The service will support a select range of cryptocurrencies at debut, including bitcoin

ETH$2,409.60

“Digital assets are not a replacement for the traditional financial system but an important complement to it,” Deutsche’s co-head of corporate bank, Gerald Podobnik, said in an announcement on Wednesday.

“We see them as new rails that coexist with existing marketing infrastructures. The service will be developed in line with client demand, regulatory requirements and the bank’s risk appetite,” Podobnik added.

Deutsche Bank was reported to be preparing a crypto custody service alongside exchange Bitpanda for debut sometime in 2026 last July.

As institutions and corporates adopt digital assets, they will likely gravitate toward asset-custody services offered by financial institutions they already rely on for their traditional financial portfolios.

Prominent Europe-based banks such as Standard Chartered and BBVA already offer such services.
