Deutsche Bank launches digital asset custody for institutional clients in Europe

Deutsche Bank has activated its digital asset custody service for paying institutional clients across Europe, marking a significant milestone in its entry into cryptocurrency-related financial services. The launch was confirmed on November 11, 2026, as the bank transitions from planning to live operations for eligible corporate clients seeking to hold and transfer select digital assets within a regulated framework. The bank’s newly-launched service targets institutional and corporate clients, not retail customers. Deutsche Bank confirmed it manages clients’ wallets and private keys, enabling secure storage and transfer of supported digital currencies. Access to the custody service is provided through Autobahn, the bank’s multi-channel gateway, which utilizes hardware security modules to safeguard private keys.
