Singapore / Amsterdam – 25 August 2026 – SWI Capital Holding Ltd (Euronext Amsterdam: SWICH,
(“SWI Group”) the listed investment group, today confirms the strategic shift that has reshaped its
business strategy over the past year: over 80% of the Group’s capital is now allocated to a transatlantic
digital-infrastructure platform exceeding 4 GW, with ambitions to increase share to 90%.
- SWI Group confirms the completion of its pre-announced acquisition of a controlling stake of
over 70% in Genesis Digital Assets (GDA), to be renamed SWI Digital - Digital infrastructure now accounts for more than 80% of SWI Group’s capital allocation with
the intention to increase this to above 90% over time - SWI Group to develop its own HPC and GPU-as-a-service platform – Polarise partnership
transforming into financial collaboration - SWI Group expects to deliver double-digit growth in 2026
Under the leadership of co-founders Max-Hervé George and Jaume Sabater, SWI Group became a
listed investment group that deploys its own balance sheet across high-growth private market
opportunities, alongside its established asset management activities. The Group is accelerating the
growth of its own capital investment activity with most of the focus on data centers and AI
infrastructure and expects to deliver double-digit balance sheet growth in 2026.
SWI DIGITAL
With the assistance of Morgan Stanley & Co LLC, acting as exclusive financial advisor for the
acquisition, SWI Group has secured, through acquisitions and restructuring, a controlling stake of over
70% in GDA, which will be renamed SWI Digital and will be the Group’s US focused digital
infrastructure platform.
DIGITAL INFRASTRUCTURE DRIVING VALUE CREATION
SWI Group has strategically focused its capital allocation on digital infrastructure, investing
consistently in the sector over the past five years to build a European and US portfolio with a combined
power capacity in excess of 4 GW. As of today, more than 80% of SWI Group’s capital is allocated to
digital infrastructure, with the intention to increase this to above 90% over time. SWI Group’s digital
infrastructure investments are anchored by two platforms:
● AiOnX – SWI’s European AI-infrastructure platform, developing a portfolio of hyperscale, AIready data-center campuses across Ireland, the United Kingdom, Denmark, Spain and Italy,
with one site already secured by a leading hyperscale tenant.
● SWI Digital (GDA) – SWI’s US-focused digital-infrastructure group with an energised and gridconnected land bank, providing SWI with a scaled foothold in the world’s largest and fastestgrowing market for AI and high-performance-computing capacity.
FROM LAND AND POWER TO COMPUTE: HPC AND GPU-AS-A-SERVICE
Beyond the ownership of land, power and data-center capacity, SWI Group is moving up the value
chain into AI compute. The Group will leverage on its own highly experienced team and balance sheet
depth to develop in-house its proprietary AI-cloud platform designed to deliver GPU-accelerated
compute to enterprises, research institutions and AI developers.
Combining AiOnX’s and GDA’s energised sites with the Group’s HPC layer gives SWI a vertically
integrated digital-infrastructure stack, allowing the Group to capture value at each layer of the AIinfrastructure chain.
POLARISE TRANSACTION
In relation to the partnership with Polarise announced earlier this year, both parties mutually agreed
not to pursue the originally proposed completion of this transaction.
Rather than purchasing a majority ownership in Polarise, SWI Group will provide financing to
accelerate Polarise’s strategic expansion; the two entities will remain separated and grow in their own
distinct ways.
STRATEGIC INITIATIVES BEYOND DIGITAL INFRASTRUCTURE
Beyond digital infrastructure, SWI Group continues to host a diversified set of investments with
distinct return drivers. These include: - European industrial and logistics real estate through investment grade, Singapore Stock
Exchange-listed SERT, - US multifamily residential through Varia US, listed on the SIX Swiss Exchange,
- an emerging conviction in culture, sport and entertainment, sectors where SWI Group
identifies attractive investment opportunities ahead of institutional consensus; - an opportunistic, asset-class-agnostic strategy, investing in opportunities the Group identifies
across a range of markets, including distressed situations and financial assets.
Max-Hervé George, co-founder and CEO of SWI Group declared: “Our transformation into a listed
investment group gave us the balance-sheet firepower and the agility to back the trends we believe
will define the next decade. Digital infrastructure sits at the heart of that conviction, and the creation
of SWI Digital is a defining step for the Group.”
Jaume Sabater, co-founder of SWI Group and Chief Executive Officer of Stoneweg, added: “Listing on
Euronext Amsterdam has allowed us to focus on investing our own balance sheet with discipline and
conviction. It positions the Group to capture value at pace and at scale. Completing our controlling
stake in GDA is the clearest demonstration of this strategy to date.”
