STOCKHOLM, SWEDEN / ACCESSWIRE / November 17, 2021 / Hilbert Group (STO:HILB-B)
Hilbert Group AB (NASDAQ FN: HILB B) has acquired a 2.7% stake in HAYVN, a global investment bank specializing in digital assets. The investment was part of HAYVN's Series A funding round, which was led by Red Acre Ventures and Hilbert Group. The transaction amount for Hilbert Group is $1 million, and the deal will be cash settled.
HAYVN is providing a regulated institutional grade digital currency platform that offers OTC trading and custody of digital assets. HAYVN is based in Abu-Dhabi and has a strong presence in the MENA region. HAYVN's founders and management previously worked for well-known investment banks such as Bank of America Merrill Lynch and Credit Suisse. As part of the investment, Hilbert Group will aid HAYVN in expanding their offerings on the asset management side and the two companies will be strategic partners in terms of product development and distribution of fund products.
"This deal is about much more than just adding another passive VC-investment to our portfolio. We will work closely with HAYVN in terms their product development and bring our own fund products to a new market - thereby elevating our capacity to raise our total assets under management", says Niclas Sandstrom, CEO of Hilbert Group. "We are impressed with HAYVN's team, their rapid pace of development and their strong focus on transparency and regulatory compliance - they are in the process of securing the most extensive regulatory licenses in both Switzerland and the UAE. This investment also means that we deepen our strategic partnership with Red Acre Ventures, whom we closed the Series A with, and who now will join the board of HAYVN.", he added.
"With the closing of our Series A funding, we are able to continue to improve on our core products and expand our offerings beyond OTC trading and custody. Leveraging off the Asset Management strength of our new shareholder Hilbert Group, we will shortly begin providing our clients with secure access to digital currency through a series of bespoke, diversified investment products", says Christopher Flinos, co-founder and CEO of HAYVN.

Survey of 4,000+ U.S. and Australian families finds children report doing more online - from social media to generative AI - than their parents realize.

Frame Security Launches KnowBetter as AI Reshapes Social Engineering8.7.2026 14:00:00 CEST | Press release
AI Is Rewriting the Social Engineering Playbook. Security Awareness Training Hasn't Caught Up. Organizations must KnowBetter. NEW YORK CITY, NY / ACCESS Newswire / July 8, 2026 / Security teams have spent two decades training employees to spot a familiar set of red flags: a suspicious link, a misspelled domain, an urgent request for a wire transfer. That approach is now colliding with an attacker toolkit that has changed faster than most awareness programs have. Generative AI has made it possible to clone a voice from a few seconds of audio, generate a passable deepfake video in minutes, and write a phishing email tailored to a specific employee's role, manager, and recent LinkedIn activity. Vishing calls, smishing texts, and video-based impersonation are now standard components of enterprise social engineering campaigns, not edge cases. "Most organizations are still training people to recognize threats from five years ago," said Tal Shlomo, co-founder and CEO of Frame Security, a huma
