Our newly launched offering in the area of cryptocurrencies offers a high level of security and allows the integration of additional currencies and applications.

The press release notes that Zurich Cantonal Bank\u2019s latest crypto offering isn\u2019t just limited to its customers.

It\u2019s worth noting that this isn\u2019t the bank\u2019s first exposure to digital assets, as in 2021, the institution was involved in issuing the world\u2019s first digital bond on the SIX Digital Exchange.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
