- The breadth of MiCA approval ensures SwissBorg can offer its existing services while further developing its platform in a legal manner.
Paris, France, March 12, 2026 – SwissBorg has successfully secured approval under the European Markets in Crypto-Assets (MiCA) regulation. Granted by the French Autorité des Marchés Financiers (AMF), this approval validates SwissBorg’s ongoing commitment to providing secure, transparent, and fully compliant crypto-asset wealth management.
This gives SwissBorg authorisation to provide a broad spectrum of crypto-asset services, including custody and administration, order execution, transfer and placing, portfolio management and the provision of advice on crypto-assets. The authorisation granted by the AMF is highly comprehensive, and the breadth of approval ensures SwissBorg can offer its existing services while further developing its platform in a legal manner.
“At SwissBorg, we have always believed that embracing regulation is the only true path to mass adoption and long-term trust,” said Cyrus Fazel, CEO and Co-Founder of SwissBorg. “Securing our MiCA approval is a defining moment for our community and the broader European crypto-asset ecosystem. It empowers us to innovate with legal certainty while offering our users the highest standard of protection.”
Anchoring its European operations under MiCA, SwissBorg sought approval in a jurisdiction known for stringent regulatory standards. The French AMF is recognised as one of the most proactive and rigorous financial regulators in Europe. It consistently champions robust investor protection, having previously joined forces with Austrian and Italian market authorities to push for a more rigorous framework for crypto-asset supervision. Earning approval from the French regulator is a validation of SwissBorg’s robust internal controls, risk management and commitment to the safety of user assets.
Justine Lamberger, Head of Legal at SwissBorg, added: “Securing our MiCA approval through the AMF is no small feat; it is a testament to the uncompromising standards we set for ourselves. The AMF is rightfully recognised as one of the most demanding regulators in Europe, and successfully going through their rigorous assessment process ensures our users can have the utmost confidence in how their assets are protected. MiCA is propelling SwissBorg into a new era of institutional-grade crypto brokerage.”
Mr. Fazel also stated, “I want to extend my deepest gratitude to the Autorité des Marchés Financiers (AMF) for their rigorous and constructive engagement throughout this process. Above all, I want to congratulate our incredible team. Their relentless hard work, expertise, and dedication have turned this vision into a reality.”
In the coming months, SwissBorg will facilitate the transition of its European user operations from its current operational entity in Estonia to the new CASP-authorised one in France. This transition will become fully effective as soon as all necessary operational steps have been completed. Existing users do not need to take any action at this time and will receive dedicated communication detailing the migration process as the official launch approaches. Once the migration is complete, European users will benefit fully from the protections and safeguards offered by MiCA.
Operating a fully approved entity in one of Europe’s most demanding regulatory environments, SwissBorg is expanding its innovative wealth management services with legal certainty.
