Sygnum, the global digital asset banking group, has announced the appointment of Reto Marx as Chief Executive Officer of Sygnum Singapore, effective 1 August 2026. Marx, who brings over 25 years of wealth management experience from institutions such as UBS and Credit Suisse, joins from VP Bank where he served as CEO and Co-Head Singapore.
In a parallel move, Gerald Goh, Sygnum’s Co-Founder and current APAC CEO, will assume the role of Executive Chairman of Sygnum APAC. Goh will focus on groupwide capital markets, fundraising strategies, and key stakeholder relationships, particularly within the Asia Pacific region.
These leadership changes come as Sygnum accelerates its digital wealth strategy for Asia, aiming to meet the growing demand for regulated access to digital assets. The appointments are part of Sygnum’s commitment to Singapore as its APAC hub, serving high-net-worth investors and institutional partners across the region.
Marx’s extensive experience in wealth management across Singapore, Hong Kong, and Australia positions him to drive Sygnum’s digital wealth strategy forward. “Reto’s appointment is part of our continued effort to further strengthen our senior leadership team in Singapore and Asia as we move into the next phase of growth,” said Goh.
Marx expressed enthusiasm about his new role, stating, “Asian wealth is increasingly seeking trusted, regulated access to digital assets as part of a diversified portfolio. I am excited to work with Gerald, the leadership team, and our clients and partners to translate that demand into the next phase of growth for Sygnum in the region.”
These strategic appointments underscore Sygnum’s ambition to leverage its Swiss-Singaporean regulatory heritage and deepen its engagement with clients and institutional partners in the APAC region.
