Who We are and what we do

At CorPa, we create a regulated and legally clear framework in which your digital assets can be held, structured and utilised responsibly. We support private and institutional clients in embedding digital assets into transparent legal and operational structures, rather than holding them in isolation across individual platforms. This includes tokenisation, Bitcoin Mining as an integrated operational component, and comprehensive advisory services across the full spectrum of blockchain services, all within a compliance-driven environment governed by the Liechtenstein TVTG. Where additional services are required, we ensure your setup remains seamlessly coordinated and fully covered.

The CorPa Group, headquartered in Liechtenstein, comprises CorPa Treuhand AG and CorPa Blockchain AG, with additional offices worldwide. Registered under the TVTG, we are a regulated provider of digital asset services under the supervision of the Financial Market Authority (FMA) Liechtenstein.

Many crypto platforms primarily provide access, while private banks often rely on third-party providers for crypto-related services. In both cases, digital assets are frequently held outside a dedicated legal framework and without clear structural integration.

CorPa takes a different approach. We start with the legal and regulatory foundation and build the appropriate services on top of it. Digital assets are treated as part of a structured and regulated setup, not as an additional account or add-on product. This provides greater legal clarity, clearly defined responsibilities, and reduced dependency on external platforms.

Within the CorPa Group, fiduciary structuring expertise and digital asset services are closely aligned. This allows digital assets to be integrated into existing legal structures such as trusts, foundations, or corporate entities where appropriate.

The focus is not on investment decisions, but on ownership, governance, and operational clarity, ensuring that digital assets fit coherently into established legal and fiduciary frameworks.

Operating within a group means that legal, fiduciary and digital services work in a coordinated manner, rather than being spread across multiple external providers. For clients, this reduces interfaces, clarifies responsibilities and supports continuity over time. Legal structuring, tokenisation and mining are all aligned within a coordinated, supervised group framework, ensuring that everything is managed with consistency and full oversight from a single source.

Regulation and Legal security

CorPa operates from Liechtenstein within a clearly defined regulatory framework and is supervised by the Financial Market Authority of the Principality of Liechtenstein.

Our digital asset services are provided in accordance with applicable Liechtenstein law and relevant European standards. Regulation is not an add-on to our services but the foundation on which they are built.

Liechtenstein’s Token and VT Service Provider Act (TVTG) provides a legal framework that explicitly recognizes digital assets within the law.

Rather than treating digital assets as purely technical instruments or contractual claims, the TVTG establishes a clear legal basis for rights and ownership linked to tokens. This creates legal clarity that goes beyond platform terms or bilateral agreements.

When digital assets are structured with CorPa, they are embedded in a legally defined framework under Liechtenstein law. Ownership and control are addressed through recognized legal structures rather than relying solely on contractual arrangements with a platform or service provider.

This approach supports enforceability, governance, and continuity over time.

CorPa supports internationally oriented structures while anchoring itself in the stable legal environment of Liechtenstein. By establishing digital asset setups in a robust and well-established jurisdiction, we provide a consistent legal basis, even when clients, counterparties or operations span multiple countries.

Our client focus and mandates

People come to CorPa for different reasons. Some are just beginning to explore digital assets and want to do it properly from the start. Others already hold digital assets and realise that what they have today is access, not clearly defined ownership. What our customers have in common is a simple concern: they want digital assets to be treated like real assets, with legal clarity and clear responsibility.Suitability for Family Offices and Long-Term Structures

CorPa is designed for family offices and long-term structures where digital assets must align with established governance, oversight, and reporting disciplines.

Some clients come to CorPa before making their first significant investment in Digital Assets. They are not looking for speed or speculation, but for clarity and long-term profitability. Instead of opening accounts on platforms where ownership is defined by terms and conditions, they want a setup where it is clear who owns what, under which law, and within which structure. CorPa provides that legal and regulatory foundation.

Some clients come to CorPa after having bought digital assets through platforms, banks, or personal arrangements. In these cases, access exists, but ownership, governance, and long-term control are often unclear. Clients work with CorPa when they want to move beyond platform access and place their digital assets into a legally defined framework. The goal is not to change exposure, but to ensure that digital assets are truly owned, structured, and no longer dependent on a specific platform or provider.

Clients work with CorPa to establish digital assets within a regulated and fiduciarily sound framework, built for long-term reliability. This includes tokenisation projects, Bitcoin Mining as an operational component, and comprehensive advisory services, all underpinned by the trust and structuring expertise of the CorPa Group.

Institutional and corporate clients engage CorPa when digital assets form or are planned to form part of their operations or balance sheet. This includes organizations that already rely on digital assets for treasury activities, regular fiat and crypto flows, custody requirements, or operational use cases such as mining, as well as those preparing to establish such activities within a robust framework. Our customers trust CorPa especially when these activities require a legally secure and structured setup that goes beyond platform access or fragmented provider arrangements. The focus is on clear ownership, defined responsibilities, and reliable operations within a regulated environment, allowing digital assets and related fiat movements to be handled with the level of legal certainty and operational discipline expected in an institutional context.

How CorpA Supports digital assets in practice

CorPa supports digital assets within a clear legal and regulatory framework. Clients turn to CorPa when they require legal certainty, reliable processes and a structured integration of digital assets into their existing setup. Depending on individual needs, this encompasses tokenisation and Bitcoin Mining as an operational component, with all services delivered within a supervised, compliance-oriented environment.

Yes. Digital assets can be integrated into existing legal structures such as trusts, foundations, or corporate entities, where appropriate.

By combining digital asset services with the CorPa Group’s long-standing fiduciary and structuring expertise, digital assets can be aligned with the same legal logic and governance principles that apply to other assets held within these structures.

Liechtenstein’s legal framework for digital assets is technology- and asset-neutral. In principle, it applies to all digital assets, provided that ownership and associated rights can be clearly defined under law.

In practice, CorPa focuses on digital assets that are widely recognised, legally interpretable, and operationally reliable. This includes established cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin and Ethereum, as well as tokenized assets that are created and managed within a clearly defined legal structure.

The decisive factor is not the type of digital asset, but whether it can be clearly owned, governed, and responsibly operated within a regulated environment. Assets that do not meet these criteria are typically not suitable for a structured and legally secure setup.

Both. You can engage CorPa for tokenisation or Bitcoin Mining as a standalone service, or combine these with legal structuring and governance components into a complete setup built around your digital assets. Whatever your needs, everything is coordinated within a single framework, so nothing needs to be managed separately.

How Assets Are protected and Safeguarded

Digital assets held with CorPa sit within a regulated and legally defined environment. Protection is built on clear access rules and governance mechanisms that align with established legal and regulatory standards, ensuring that your assets are not only technically secure but reliably protected over the long term, both operationally and in terms of legal certainty.

Access to digital assets is governed through clearly defined roles and permissions, established within the legal and structural setup agreed with the client. Rather than relying on informal arrangements or single points of control, access and responsibilities are documented and aligned with the underlying legal framework, ensuring transparency and accountability.

CorPa deliberately adopts a framework-based approach and is only to a very limited extent platform-dependent. This enhances stability and reduces the risks that arise when a setup relies solely on platform access.

CorPa structures digital asset setups with continuity and clarity in mind.

Because ownership, access rights, and responsibilities are defined within a legal framework rather than solely through platform terms, assets are not dependent on a single technical interface or provider. This supports orderly handling even in situations where markets, platforms, or counterparties experience disruption.

Continuity is addressed through clear governance structures, documented access rules, and legally anchored ownership. These principles are not new to CorPa. They are rooted in more than 25 years of fiduciary and trust experience, where continuity, succession, and control have always been central considerations.

Whether digital assets are held privately, within family structures, or on a corporate balance sheet, the setup is designed to remain comprehensible, enforceable, and operable over time. The same fiduciary logic that has long governed traditional assets is applied to digital assets, ensuring stability across organisational changes, succession events, or evolving regulatory environments.

Long-Term Wealth Preservation and Planning

Digital assets can be treated like any other important asset when they are placed within a clear legal structure. Instead of sitting on platforms or being managed informally, with CorPa they are held in a way that makes ownership, responsibility, and continuity clear. This allows digital assets to be part of a long-term plan rather than something separate or uncertain.

Yes. Digital assets can be passed on just like other assets when they are properly structured.
Because CorPa has been working with trusts and succession planning for more than 25 years, the same principles that apply to traditional assets are applied to digital assets. This ensures that it is clear who inherits what, under which rules, and with which rights.

CorPa focuses on clear rules instead of personal arrangements.
Access, responsibilities, and decision-making are defined in advance so that digital assets remain manageable even when people change, whether due to succession, organisational changes, or other transitions.

Change is to be expected. Structures are therefore designed to be both stable and adaptable. Since digital assets are embedded in a legally recognised framework, adjustments can be made without starting over or moving assets between platforms each time something changes.

Global Structures and Cross-Border Considerations

Yes. With CorPa, clients can work with digital assets even when their lives, businesses, or structures span multiple countries.

CorPa operates through subsidiaries in multiple jurisdictions, allowing us to be close to clients and their operations while anchoring digital assets in a stable legal framework. Whether assets are held privately, within a family structure, or on a company balance sheet, CorPa helps place digital assets into a setup that works across borders.

Digital assets are anchored in a clear and consistent legal framework, even when clients, banks, or operational activities are located in different countries.

This reduces complexity and helps ensure that ownership and responsibilities remain clear, regardless of where activities take place.

CorPa sees itself as a complement to existing advisory structures. Clients naturally bring their trusted advisors with them. CorPa integrates into the existing setup and assumes responsibility where Digital Assets require a clear legal and structural framework.

The aim is to embed digital assets seamlessly into the overall structure without replacing established relationships. This creates a coordinated approach in which responsibilities are clearly defined and digital assets are handled in a structured and transparent manner.

How Collaboration typically begins

The initial conversation serves to place your situation in context.
You outline your considerations and how digital assets currently fit, or may fit, into your broader structure. CorPa listens carefully, asks targeted questions, and provides an initial professional perspective on the relevant legal and structural aspects.

The conversation takes place in a confidential setting and is intended for orientation. It is not about decisions, but about establishing a clear and shared understanding.

Once you decide to work with CorPa, the process follows a clear and well-structured course. CorPa outlines the legal and operational framework that fits your situation and identifies the services that are appropriate. This provides a clear understanding of how digital assets can be integrated, without requiring early commitments.

The process is orderly and forward-looking. Topics are addressed step by step, information is gathered with purpose, and decisions are taken only once all relevant aspects are clearly understood. Clients value the clarity, reliability, and discreet handling that characterise the entire collaboration.
