Overview
- Cantor Fitzgerald began advising AMINA on options for a potential public listing on Monday, July 27, 2026, and the engagement is at an early stage with no deal or structure finalized.
- Two anonymous sources told reporters that AMINA had explored fast routes such as SPACs and favored a reverse takeover of a digital asset treasury company, a claim the bank’s spokesperson publicly denied.
- AMINA stressed it is focused on raising strategic growth capital rather than pursuing SPACs or a DAT reverse takeover and said it is in talks with potential investors, not with SPAC sponsors or DATs.
- The bank holds a Swiss FINMA banking licence, secured a MiCA authorization through its Austrian unit to access EU markets, and reported roughly $245 million raised from investors and CHF 74.6 million in Tier 1 capital at year-end 2025.
- Cantor’s advisory role fits its broader push into blockchain capital markets, including a July 2026 partnership with Securitize to enable on-chain IPOs, and a public listing for AMINA would give investors regulated exposure to crypto banking while increasing disclosure and governance requirements.
