In 2020, Jan Malkus and his BDSwiss Group sought a banking license to establish Unleashed Capital Bank. However, the project has likely lost his support by now. In 2021, Malkus founded Finportal Ltd in Cyprus, which operates Skyground Fintech Group (www.skyground.group) together with Skyground Services Ltd, a Cyprus-based entity co-founded by the former BDSwiss Group executives Alexander Oelfke and Konstantin Oelfke.
It is not really apparent at this time how Skyground works. It offers extensive financial services ranging from banking to trading to wealth management without any discernible license.
In 2021, Jan Malkus acquired a majority stake in the Cypriot fintech company AssetGeek, which is also active in the crypto exchange segment via DX One (https://dxone.com)
