Boerse Stuttgart and DekaBank Partner to Expand Institutional Crypto Trading
Boerse Stuttgart, one of Germany’s leading stock exchanges, has teamed up with DekaBank to introduce cryptocurrency trading services for institutional clients, further bridging the gap between traditional finance and digital assets.
With this partnership, DekaBank—managing over 411 billion euros ($427 billion) in assets—will integrate Boerse Stuttgart Digital’s regulated brokerage and custody solutions, enabling its institutional investors to trade cryptocurrencies securely and efficiently.
“This collaboration reinforces our mission to provide fully regulated and secure digital asset infrastructure for institutional players across Europe,” said Matthias Voelkel, CEO of Boerse Stuttgart Group.
Boerse Stuttgart Digital specializes in brokerage, trading, and custody services tailored for financial institutions. Over the past year, the exchange has seen significant growth in its crypto trading division, which now contributes to 25% of its overall revenue.
As part of its long-term strategy, Boerse Stuttgart plans to extend partnerships with more European banks, brokers, and asset managers to drive broader institutional adoption of cryptocurrencies.
Additionally, the exchange reported that its crypto trading volumes nearly tripled last year, achieving record-breaking performance. It currently holds approximately 4.3 billion euros ($4.45 billion) in digital assets under custody.
