About GenTwo AG and GenTwo Digital

Zurich-based innovative securitization specialist GenTwo has invented a new generation of financial products. The company creates securitization platforms for asset managers, banks, family offices and venture capital investors, enabling professional investors to easily invest in bankable and previously non-bankable assets.

New performance potential emerges through granting access to a theoretically unlimited world of asset classes. Institutional investors can use GenTwo’s securitization solution to realise their own product and business innovations, to make any type of assets investable and to help shape new, sustainable markets. Private investors in Switzerland can also benefit from these innovative products via their financial intermediaries, thereby giving GenTwo the opportunity to open and expand its customer base to retail investors.

GenTwo Digital is based in Crypto Valley in Zug, Switzerland. The subsidiary of GenTwo enables professional investors around the world, and now also private investors in Switzerland, to securitize all digital assets, including crypto assets, in securities on the traditional financial market via their financial intermediaries.
