Regulatory Disclosures

SBDV is a Zurich-seated vault and capital-arranging institution serving clients worldwide. It is not a Swiss bank.

SBDV provides bullion vault custody and arranges structured capital facilities for qualified enterprises. Capital Access is not a protected bank deposit and is not covered by deposit-insurance schemes. Funds held as a security deposit are contractual cash collateral, not a deposit in your name at a bank.

Private-client wealth mandates are investment programmes, not bank accounts. A stated mandate yield is not guaranteed interest, may be paused or revised, and is not covered by deposit insurance. Bitcoin may be used only as a funding or payout rail; SBDV does not operate a crypto exchange or hold client private keys. Transfers in Bitcoin are irreversible.

All clients undergo know-your-customer, beneficial-ownership, and anti-money-laundering screening consistent with the Swiss Anti-Money Laundering Act (AMLA). Ultimate beneficial owners are identified to natural persons. Screening applies regardless of the client’s country of incorporation.

Investment and portfolio management services may require appropriate licensing or be provided through regulated partners. SBDV does not claim a FINMA banking licence. Approval of any facility or mandate is discretionary.

Persons and entities in comprehensively sanctioned jurisdictions cannot be onboarded. High-risk jurisdictions may be subject to enhanced due diligence rather than automatic refusal.

Risk disclosures: investments involve risk including possible loss of principal. Past performance is not indicative of future results. This website is not legal, tax, or investment advice.
