Swiss digital asset bank Sygnum has launched a full range of services for SUI, the native token of the Sui blockchain. These include custody, trading, staking, and lending options, all aimed at professional and institutional investors.
According to a statement shared by Sui Network on X, the partnership will give institutions safer, regulated access to the blockchain as it expands into global finance. The announcement also confirms that SUI will be held off Sygnum’s balance sheet and secured using the bank’s regulated multi-custody platform.
Sygnum first introduced custody and trading support for SUI in July 2025, and is now preparing to roll out staking and Lombard loans, allowing users to borrow against their SUI without selling the asset.
The move follows Sygnum’s role as a banking partner to the Sui Foundation, a relationship both sides say will help support the network’s broader adoption.
Christian Thompson, Managing Director at the Sui Foundation, said the partnership with Sygnum strengthens Sui’s reach across global markets. He described Sygnum as an ideal fit due to its “crypto-native team” and fully regulated setup.
Mathias Imbach, Sygnum’s Co-Founder and CEO, added that the bank’s work with digital assets sits at the point where blockchain and traditional finance are coming together. He said the services would help the Sui Foundation build a stable, forward-looking treasury.
According to Sygnum’s announcement, the expansion makes SUI one of the few newer tokens to have full institutional support within a fully licensed banking framework. This could help raise Sui’s profile among financial firms seeking regulated blockchain exposure.
