\nRaiffeisen Bank International to Roll Out Bitcoin Services Across Europe in Expanded Bitpanda Deal<\/a><\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

Austrian banking group Raiffeisen is rolling out bitcoin trading for its 18 million customers.<\/p>\n

The firm said in a Wednesday statement<\/a> that it was working with brokerage Bitpanda as part of the initiative.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Raiffeisen\u2019s announcement comes as top banks worldwide launch crypto trading and custody services. BBVA, Santander\u2019s Openbank, Germany\u2019s cooperative and savings banks, SoFi, PNC, Charles Schwab and Morgan Stanley have all either launched or announced retail crypto trading over the past 18 months.<\/p>\n

RBI chief executive Michael H\u00f6llerer pointed to customer demand as the driving force. \u201cWe are seeing growing demand for crypto assets in our markets, which we are addressing with a strong, reputable partner,\u201d he said, adding that the bank is committed to \u201cmeeting our customers\u2019 needs in the best possible way.\u201d<\/p>\n

The deal builds on an arrangement that began in Austria. In 2024, Raiffeisen Landesbank Nieder\u00f6sterreich-Wien (RLB N\u00d6-Wien) became the first traditional bank in the European Union to offer crypto trading within its existing banking environment, using Bitpanda\u2019s technology.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The new agreement moves away from striking separate integrations market by market and instead sets up a single approach for the whole group.<\/p>\n

Bitpanda Enterprise provides banks, fintechs, brokers, trading firms and family offices with the tools to offer digital asset products to retail and corporate clients. Its services include investment infrastructure, liquidity, custody, payments, stablecoins and tokenisation, with an emphasis on compliance and scalability.<\/p>\n

RBI treats Austria and Central and Eastern Europe as its home market, with subsidiary banks in 11 countries in the region. The group has about 42,000 employees serving 18.8 million customers through roughly 1,300 branches, most of them in CEE. Its shares trade on the Vienna Stock Exchange, and the regional Raiffeisen banks own about 61.2 per cent of the company, with the rest in free float.<\/p>\n
