Rest assured, the safety of our Yuhsers’ digital assets is and will always be our top priority. To provide the safest possible crypto space for you, we collaborate closely with our founding mother and custodian bank, Swissquote. This way, we are able to implement state-of-the-art security systems including multi-signature wallets, offline storage of cryptographic materials and strict access-control policies. We rely on redundant custody solutions, including ours and external partners’, to store our Yuhsers’ digital assets. Finally, we hold only a minimal amount of digital assets with sub-custodians, such as those necessary for day-to-day trading activities with the relevant liquidity providers.

In the event of bankruptcy and under Swiss law, digital assets are segregated from the custodian (or sub-custodian) assets. They do not form part of the bankruptcy estate. However, in this specific case, it is important to note that the bankruptcy process cannot be fully guaranteed due to the lack of case law and regulatory practice.

Yuh stores the vast majority of our Yuhsers’ digital assets in direct custody via our founding mother and custodian bank, Swissquote. We hold only a minimal amount of digital assets with sub-custodians, such as those necessary for day-to-day trading activities with the relevant liquidity providers.

Don’t fret! In Switzerland, investors are a legally protected species. The Federal Act on Financial Services (FinSA) came into force on 1 January 2020 with the objective to strengthen the legal protection for investors in the country. The FinSA distinguishes between three client segments: “private client”, “professional client” and “institutional client,” each of which has a different level of investor protection. As a Yuhser, you belong to the “private client” category – therefore, you benefit from the highest level of investor protection.
