London-based digital asset manager CoinShares has acquired a 9.02% stake in Swiss online bank FlowBank for US$11.85 million.

With this move, FlowBank’s clients can invest in CoinShares’ crypto ETPs. From next year onwards, customers will be able to directly buy, HODL, sell, share cryptocurrencies as well as other tokenised assets directly from their FlowBank account.

This further expands the wide financial product suite currently available through FlowBank.

Additionally, FlowBank has also opened an office in the heart of Zurich’s financial district a year after its successful launch and rapid growth.

FlowBank’s new office will accommodate both the business development team as well as key functions of the customer support team.
