GENEVA, April 6, 2022 /PRNewswire=KYODO JBN/ --
Alpian SA ("Alpian"), an innovative digital private bank, today announced the
granting by FINMA of a banking license and a successful CHF19 million Series B+
closing, enabling Alpian to shortly launch to the public in Q3 2022, becoming
Switzerland's first digital private bank.
Alpian, majority-owned by Fideuram-Intesa Sanpaolo Private Banking, secured a
third round of financing, fully subscribed by Fideuram - Intesa Sanpaolo
Private Banking. The financing will support the deployment of Alpian's range of
services in Switzerland, comprising both private and online banking.
This hybrid model combines a secure, state-of-the-art banking experience with
the support of Alpian's qualified wealth advisors, giving affluent clients
access to services normally reserved for traditional private banking. To
complement this, Alpian has seamlessly woven everyday banking features into its
digital offering.
Schuyler Weiss, CEO of Alpian, commented:
"Since 2019, we have built what will become Switzerland's first digital private
bank. With the funds raised during the Series B+ and with its new standing as a
licensed Swiss bank, Alpian is well equipped to launch its offering."
Pasha Bakhtiar, REYL Intesa Sanpaolo Partner and Chairman of the board at
Alpian, added:
"We are proud to have passed these two milestones on our way to delivering a
truly unique and bespoke digital private banking offering. The successful
journey so far is a testament to the resilience and dynamism of the Alpian
team, as well as the vision of REYL Intesa Sanpaolo."
Luca Bortolan, Head of Direct Bank Fideuram Intesa Sanpaolo Private Banking,
added:
"From the beginning, we have seen Alpian as a great opportunity to invest in
the development of digital private banking. Alpian will bring both strategic
and synergy driven value, demonstrating our proactive commitment of addressing
the needs of its current and future clients."
