Boerse Stuttgart Joins Forces With DekaBank to Provide Crypto Trading for Institutions
In a move that strengthens institutional access to digital assets, Germany’s Boerse Stuttgart has partnered with DekaBank to offer cryptocurrency trading services to institutional investors.
Through this collaboration, DekaBank—managing assets worth over 411 billion euros ($427 billion)—will leverage Boerse Stuttgart Digital’s fully regulated brokerage and custody infrastructure to facilitate secure and compliant crypto trading.
“This partnership highlights our commitment to integrating digital assets into the institutional investment landscape with a regulated and reliable framework,” said Matthias Voelkel, CEO of Boerse Stuttgart Group.
Boerse Stuttgart Digital, a key division of the stock exchange, provides end-to-end digital asset services for financial institutions across Europe. Crypto trading has become a major revenue driver for the firm, now accounting for 25% of its total business.
As Boerse Stuttgart continues to expand, it aims to onboard more European banks, asset managers, and brokers to accelerate institutional cryptocurrency adoption.
The exchange also reported record-breaking trading activity, with crypto trading volumes nearly tripling last year. It currently holds approximately 4.3 billion euros ($4.45 billion) in digital assets under custody.
