Private desk
One named trader, by chat or phone, around the clock, for family offices, trusts and high-net-worth clients.
Large trades are personal. With the SBZ private desk you deal with the same trader every time: someone who knows your accounts, your settlement details and how you like to trade. You agree one firm price before anything moves, with written confirmation.
There is no platform to learn and no order book. Tell your trader what you need, by chat or phone, and we handle everything from quote to settlement.

How the private desk works
One person looks after you, from the first call to every trade after.
- Step 1
Book a call
A relationship manager learns what you need: assets, typical size and how you want to settle.
- Step 2
Get set up
We onboard you once and verify your bank accounts and wallets up front. We support personal, family office, trust and corporate accounts.
- Step 3
Trade by chat or phone
Message your trader whenever you need a price. You receive one firm, all-inclusive quote; accept it and the price is locked, with written confirmation.
- Step 4
Settle
Crypto reaches your verified wallet usually within 10 to 15 minutes; fiat reaches your bank account the next business day.
What you get
The same trader every time
No call centre and no ticket queue. Your trader knows your accounts and your preferences, so each trade is quick.
Discretion
Your orders never appear on a public order book, and your details are shared with no one outside the trade.
Help with your own storage
SBZ does not keep your assets. If you are new to holding digital assets yourself, our specialists can help you set up secure storage and follow best practice.
