Swissquote Acquires PostFinance’s Stake to Fully Own Yuh

Meanwhile, Swissquote has acquired the remaining 50% stake in the digital finance platform Yuh from PostFinance, gaining full ownership of the venture originally launched in 2021. The transaction received approval from relevant authorities and reflects a strategic shift in the partnership.

Swissquote partly funded the acquisition using treasury shares, resulting in an increased PostFinance stake in Swissquote. Both parties agreed the move aligns with PostFinance’s focus on core business areas. Yuh will continue to operate under its brand, now fully integrated into Swissquote’s offerings, which serve over one million accounts.
