FAQ
Can I authorise another person to give and receive instructions on my behalf relating to my brokerage and custody account with Sygnum Singapore?
Yes, you may authorise such person(s) in writing and notify us of such authorisation. Such authorised person(s) may act on your behalf in connection with all matters relating to the brokerage and custody services that you engage us for, save for any specific actions excluded in any letter of authorisation provided to us.
How do I claim or receive entitlements accruing to me or exercise any right and power arising from my ownership of digital assets in my account?
Such entitlement and rights (if any) arising from your digital assets custodised with us will be held by us and returned to you on demand.
What are the fees and costs for the safeguarding of my digital assets?
These are set out in the agreement you enter / entered into with us.
What happens to my digital assets in the event of default of the safeguarding institution?
As you may note in the brokerage and custody terms with us, the safeguarding institution of your digital assets is Sygnum Bank AG (“Safeguarding Person”), a FINMA-regulated Swiss bank in Switzerland. Due to operation of Swiss law, your digital assets are legally excluded from the Sygnum Bank AG’s assets for the purpose of insolvency proceedings. Accordingly, your digital assets are protected in the event of default of the Safeguarding Person, and we will take reasonable steps to recover the assets in accordance with the applicable laws.
What should I do when my digital assets are lost due to fraud or negligence on the part of Sygnum Singapore?
In case of any unusual events which may lead to potential loss or damage of your digital assets, you may contact us by calling the hotline at +65 6015 8808.
Where are my digital assets kept? Is my interest in digital assets identifiable by any document or record?
Your digital assets are kept in an omnibus account that we maintain with the Safeguarding Person (“Omnibus Account”). While your interest in digital assets in the Omnibus Account may not be identifiable by separate physical documents or electronic records, we are maintaining and will continue to maintain records of your interest in the digital assets in the Omnibus Account.
Would I be informed of the safeguarding status of my digital assets by the Safeguarding Person?
We will notify you as soon as practicable once we are informed of an incident relating to the safeguarding of your digital assets or change in any safeguarding terms and conditions.
What are the policies and procedures related to how Sygnum evaluates the digital payment tokens (DPTs) which it chooses to support, or continues to support?
The types of DPTs that we will be supporting for trading may vary from time to time. In all instances, and pursuant to paragraph 6.2 of PS-G03, Sygnum determines whether to support a given DPT based on a number of criteria, including:
- 1. Is the token still a digital payment token as defined under the Payment Services Act?
- 2. Does the token have any anonymity features or other features that would impede our duties to prevent money laundering, proliferation financing and/or terrorism financing to an unacceptable degree?
- 3. Is there sufficient liquidity in markets such that Sygnum can acquire or dispose of such tokens within a reasonable time or price?
- 4. Whereas the technical infrastructure for custodising your DPTs is provided by our affiliate, we are only able to support DPTs which are similarly supported by our affiliate.
Similarly, at such time that new developments concerning a given DPT emerge from time to time and/or periodically, we may reassess whether to continue supporting a given DPT based on the same criteria above, and may on that basis cease supporting a given DPT.
What would Sygnum do if it ceases to support a token?
In the event we have ceased to support a given DPT which we are also holding on custody for you, we shall on a best endeavours basis transfer your holdings in the same to a wallet (hosted or otherwise) specified and controlled by you. We will make reasonable efforts to provide prior notice to you of any such decision made.
How are risk of unfair or disorderly trading of digital payment tokens (“DPTs”) addressed and what are the settlement procedures of DPT transactions?
In general, we operate under a matched principal model where your orders are placed and executed by our designated trading partner, Sygnum Bank AG, a FINMA-regulated Swiss bank in Switzerland (“SBAG”). SBAG executes your DPT trades on a best-execution basis with multiple trading counterparties, thus ensuring fair pricing and minimises the risk of unfair and disorderly trading. We further detail the process of execution and fulfilment of your DPT trade instructions in the client contract and terms and conditions that you entered/or may enter into with us.
