Swiss crypto-focused bank, AMINA, has officially launched its Ripple RLUSD stablecoin service for institutional clients, making it the first global bank to support the asset. The new service aims to provide a secure and compliant way for institutional investors to access regulated digital assets.
AMINA’s RLUSD services will be available through its trusted banking network, allowing global investors to trade and hold the stablecoin securely. The move is seen as a strategic expansion of AMINA’s offerings in the rapidly growing stablecoin market.
RLUSD is backed by cash or short-term U.S. Treasuries at a 1:1 ratio, ensuring that each token represents a dollar’s worth of real assets in its reserve. This guarantee allows institutional investors to hold the digital asset with confidence.
“We are proud to be the first bank to support RLUSD and provide our clients with access to one of the most anticipated digital assets in the market,” said Myles Harrison, Chief Product Officer at AMINA Bank.
The launch of RLUSD follows a recent policy shift in March 2025, which allowed banks to hold crypto reserves. This regulatory change is expected to pave the way for stablecoins like RLUSD to enter traditional finance frameworks and risk-managed trading systems.
AMINA’s emphasis on compliance, safe custody, and institutional access has positioned it favorably to drive this transformation. The bank assured that it will expand the scope of RLUSD within months to meet the growing demand in the market.
