Maerki Baumann, under the brand ARCHIP, will offer liquidity management, services in trading, custody, staking, and the management of digital assets for private, institutional, and corporate clients. The services will be provided by the Tech Banking department in Zurich, which has extensive experience in supporting hundreds of tech companies and individuals from the crypto community.

The Middle East presence will be headed by Andreas Froehlicher, a lawyer who previously served as General Counsel and Head Legal & Compliance at Maerki Baumann. Froehlicher noted that their presence in Abu Dhabi allows the bank to connect directly with local tech, blockchain and crypto companies and that the bank will offer a combination of blockchain knowledge with Swiss service quality.

ADGM’s Chief Market Development Officer, Arvind Rammaurthy, also weighed in, noting that this is in line with ADGM’s positioning as a comprehensive regime for digital assets and tokenized financial instruments that include an expanding wealth management and private banking ecosystem.
