Swiss bank Sygnum starts accepting staked SOL as collateral for fiat loans

Swiss bank Sygnum starts accepting staked SOL as collateral for fiat loans

Sygnum Bank is now allowing clients to use staked SOL as collateral for multi-currency loans, as institutional demand drives a doubling in its crypto lending volume.

Swiss digital crypto-friendly bank Sygnum has added staked Solana (SOL) to its portfolio of tokens eligible as collateral for Lombard loans, allowing clients to access fiat liquidity while continuing to earn staking rewards.

In a Thursday blog announcement, the Swiss bank said the new feature applies to loans in Swiss francs, euros, Singapore dollars, and U.S. dollars. The new update allows Sygnum clients to unlock liquidity from their staked Solana holdings while continuing to earn staking rewards, creating “dual-income potential from a single crypto asset,” the bank said.

Sygnum also noted that Lombard loans that pledge staked SOL as collateral are “low-cost because the generated staking rewards are used to cover the majority of the fees.”

The move comes as Sygnum’s lending business has seen significant growth as its loan volume doubled over the past 12 months, the press release reads. The latest addition expands Sygnum’s Lombard loan collateral pool, which already includes Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), unstaked SOL, Polkadot (POL), Ripple’s XRP (XRP) and other altcoins.

Benedikt Koedel, head of credit & lending at Sygnum Bank, said the addition of staked Solana as collateral aims to meet a “key client need to optimise yield while maintaining liquidity.”

In November 2024, a Sygnum survey of over 400 high-net-worth investors found growing confidence in crypto’s long-term potential, driven by demand for portfolio diversification and macroeconomic hedging. The report linked this optimism to expected higher returns and a broader “megatrend” fueled by strong interest in the sector.
