Van Lanschot Kempen Streamlines Crypto Onboarding with Cense
18 November 2025 | Amsterdam
Van Lanschot Kempen, a leading private wealth bank active in the Netherlands, Belgium, and Switzerland, has announced a strategic partnership with Cense to simplify the onboarding process for clients whose wealth originates from crypto assets. The collaboration unlocks a faster, safer pathway to traditional investment services – while maintaining full regulatory compliance.
With 37% of Dutch citizens now owning crypto assets, Van Lanschot Kempen is responding to a clear market need. By integrating blockchain intelligence from Chainalysis with Cense’s automated compliance platform, the bank enables crypto-native clients to access personalized financial advice without onboarding bottlenecks.
“A growing number of people own crypto assets as part of their investment portfolios,” said Wendy Winkelhuijzen, Member of the Management Board of Van Lanschot Kempen, responsible for Private Banking Netherlands. “By combining Chainalysis data with Cense’s reporting, we gain quick and clear insights into a client’s transaction history. This ensures a consistent, objective risk assessment—allowing us to onboard faster without compromising compliance.”
