Switzerland-based neo banking firm radicant has secured a bank licence from the Swiss Financial Market Supervisory Authority FINMA.
radicant plans to enter the market at the end of 2022, with focus on offering sustainable products.
FINMA’s authorisation will allow the digital bank to offer a range of financial services such as integrated and personalised banking products, asset management and financial planning tools among others.
radicant describes itself as a digital, collaborative and sustainable financial service provider, which is aligned with UNO’s 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
To incorporate SDGs into the bank’s culture and make knowledge accessible to the community, radicant is also setting up an SDG Competence Centre with experts.
Basellandschaftliche Kantonalbank (BLKB) founded radicant in April 2021, in collaboration with Bally Capital Partners founder Anders Bally.
