Deutsche Bank Launches Institutional Crypto Custody in Europe

Deutsche Bank has launched its digital-asset custody service for corporate and institutional clients in Europe, supporting bitcoin, ether, USDC, EURC and EURAU. The bank manages wallets and private keys on behalf of clients and enables transfers to external parties, bringing regulated crypto safekeeping into its existing corporate and investment-banking infrastructure. Deutsche Bank also signed an agreement with Deutsche Asset Management to explore products including tokenized money-market funds, crypto-linked exchange-traded commodities and stablecoins. The launch marks a significant expansion of traditional-bank infrastructure for institutions seeking direct exposure to digital assets without operating their own custody systems.
