Notabene and AMINA Bank partner to build trusted infrastructure between crypto and traditional finance

Notabene today announces new regulated banking customer, AMINA Bank AG (“AMINA Bank”), a Swiss Financial Market Supervisory Authority (FINMA)-regulated crypto bank with global reach, to advance trusted infrastructure for transactions across crypto and traditional financial rails.

As digital assets continue to intersect with regulated finance, institutions on both sides are increasingly subject to the same regulatory expectations, even when operating on fundamentally different infrastructures. Standards developed for traditional finance, including FATF’s payment transparency requirements under Recommendation 16, have long been embedded in banking workflows. These expectations have since been extended to virtual assets and VASPs through the Crypto Travel Rule, creating a shared regulatory baseline across the two systems.

However, regulatory alignment has not translated into operational consistency. Differences in infrastructure, workflows, and counterparties mean that applying long-established expectations of counterparty trust to crypto transactions, particularly when value moves between the two environments, remains an operational challenge.

With this partnership, Notabene and AMINA Bank are addressing the real-world application of Travel Rule requirements across crypto-native infrastructure and regulated banking environments. Notabene’s platform enables secure information exchange and transaction transparency across crypto transactions. AMINA Bank provides banking services across traditional financial and digital assets in one place, serving clients from over 40 countries. Through this integration, AMINA Bank can now extend a more streamlined and automated experience for Travel Rule compliance.

“As institutional portfolios increasingly include crypto alongside traditional holdings, clients require infrastructure that works across both environments without creating compliance friction,” said Myles Harrison, Chief Product Officer at AMINA Bank. “Integrating Notabene’s technology allows us to provide a more streamlined compliance framework that reduces operational friction, allowing clients to transact between crypto and traditional finance with ease.”

“FATF standards are well established in banking, but applying them consistently when value moves between crypto and traditional financial systems is still an open operational challenge,” said Pelle Braendgaard, CEO of Notabene. “AMINA is able to leverage the Notabene platform as a system of record for seamless, trusted transactions as these markets continue to converge.”

As the trust layer for global money movement, Notabene works with crypto-native firms and financial institutions to support secure information exchange, authorisation, and transparency across all transactions. Through partnerships such as the one with AMINA Bank, Notabene is moving the industry towards more consistent, operationally viable transaction flows between crypto and traditional finance.

This partnership marks an important step toward bridging operational and regulatory understanding between crypto and traditional finance, as institutions seek practical ways to support compliant, trusted digital asset activity within existing financial frameworks.
