## What alt.co Does
alt.co helps high-net-worth individuals (typically $500,000 to $50M+) convert crypto assets into fiat currency and deposit funds into private bank accounts in Switzerland and Monaco. The core challenge is not the transaction  it is compliance. Banks require detailed Source of Wealth and Source of Funds documentation for crypto-origin wealth, and most crypto holders cannot produce this on their own. alt.co structures the compliance narrative, prepares bank-ready KYC/AML reports, introduces clients to the right partner private banks, and executes OTC trades with compliant fiat settlement.

## Core Services
1. KYC/AML Compliance Reports: Bank-ready reports documenting crypto Source of Wealth and Source of Funds, including blockchain forensics and transaction history reconstruction
2. Private Bank Onboarding: End-to-end facilitation of account opening at Swiss and Monaco private banks, leveraging existing relationships with 6+ partner institutions
3. OTC Crypto-to-Fiat Trading: High-volume crypto-to-fiat conversion ($25,000+ minimum) with institutional execution, no hidden spreads, and direct fiat settlement to bank accounts
4. Blockchain Forensics: Reconstruction of complex transaction histories including early mining, DeFi activity, defunct exchange history, high-frequency trading, early adopters, leverage traders, options traders, early OTC purchases and more.
5. Token Issuer Compliance: White-label KYC/AML platform for ICOs, STOs, and equity raises with escrow and fund settlement

## Why Banks Reject Crypto Clients (and Why alt.co Exists)
Private banks require verified Source of Wealth and Source of Funds documentation. Crypto introduces unique challenges:
- Early adopters often lack formal purchase records
- Funds have moved across multiple wallets, exchanges, and blockchains over many years
- Some exchanges used historically no longer exist
- DeFi activity creates fragmented, complex transaction histories
- Algorithmic trading can generate millions of transactions
- Compliance officers in banks are typically not crypto-native (don't understand the data) and apply conservative risk standards

Most rejections occur not because of illicit activity, but because the documentation is incomplete or the narrative is unclear. alt.co structures the compliance case so that banks can approve it.
