Building the Future of Finance

Becoming the Next Generation Merchant Bank

DAG Global will be the next generation of merchant bank, taking deposits from and making loans to small- and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and with a focus on banking cryptoasset companies.

DAG is currently applying to the UK regulators to obtain a full UK banking license. This will allow us to provide a full suite of classic products and services across fiat currencies (£, €, $) and cryptoasset classes.

Merchant Banking for the 21st Century

DAG intends to serve two significant underserved client sectors:

Cryptoasset companies: Cryptoasset companies struggle to find access to mainstream banking services. The estimated size of fiat deposits in the cryptoasset sector is $30 - $40 billion with no banks in the UK actively supporting this sector.
UK SME market: There are 5.9 million SMEs in the UK with ~£2.5 trillion annual turnover. Yet there is a £22 billion funding gap for SMEs in the UK.

Upon receipt of the appropriate regulatory approvals, DAG will initially focus on offering fiat deposit accounts to largely unbanked cryptoasset companies. Quickly thereafter, DAG will expand its services by providing fiat loans to underserved UK SMEs. In the long-term, DAG intends to expand its product offering to include the structuring of digital products such as digital debt and equity.
