AMINA Bank, a FINMA-regulated crypto bank based in Switzerland, has partnered with Apex Group-owned blockchain platform Tokeny to create a regulated infrastructure for institutional tokenization, the companies said on Thursday.
The deal is designed to provide “a regulated banking bridge” for financial institutions to issue and manage tokenized assets such as government bonds, corporate securities and Treasury bills.
Under the arrangement, AMINA (formerly known as SEBA Bank) will handle banking, custody and regulatory oversight for traditional assets, while Tokeny will provide the technology to convert those assets into tokens. This setup enables customers to seamlessly transfer funds between traditional accounts and blockchain-based systems.
Tokeny’s platform, built on the ERC-3643 standard, adds a compliance layer that allows only authorized investors to hold or trade tokenized assets.
Together, Amina and Tokeny say their collaboration will reduce the time-to-market for tokenized instruments from months to weeks, laying the foundation for a more connected and regulated onchain financial system.
