/ About Altech Europe
We build the rails. You run the business.
Altech Europe was founded in 2021 by a group of traders, engineers and compliance operators who were tired of the gap between traditional finance and digital assets. We built what we wished existed: institutional-grade infrastructure without the institutional-grade friction.
A desk, a vault, and an API.
We started with one OTC desk in Amsterdam and a handful of fund clients. Today, Altech Europe processes billions in annualised flow across custody, settlement and payments — powering some of the most quietly ambitious funds and fintechs in Europe.
Everything we ship is owned and operated in-house: no white-label counterparties, no pass-through desks. If something breaks, we fix it. If something wins, you win.

/ Principles
What we optimise for.
Rigor
Every trade, every line of code, every compliance review — checked twice, monitored live.
Trust
Segregated accounts, audited reserves, transparent pricing. The boring parts done right.
Direction
We don't chase narratives. We build infrastructure that outlasts cycles.
People
Ex-bank, ex-exchange, ex-founders. A small team that answers the phone.
