Cryptocurrencies vs Private Equity: A Strategic Comparison for Corporate Treasury Management

In a constantly evolving economic environment, companies are increasingly seeking to diversify their financial assets to optimize treasury management.

Private Equity (PE) and cryptocurrencies offer two distinct approaches, each with its own set of opportunities and risks.

Comparing Returns and Risk Profiles

Investment Type	Average Return (2025)	Risk Level	Liquidity	Tax Treatment
Private Equity	Over 13%	High	Low	Sophisticated taxation
Diversified Cryptos	Highly variable	Very high	High	Specific

Private Equity offers attractive long-term returns, but with significant illiquidity and entry thresholds.Cryptocurrencies can deliver exceptional performance, but with high volatility and unique operational challenges.

Crypto Asset Taxation

The taxation of crypto-assets depends on their usage:

• Recurring activity: Taxed under BIC (industrial and commercial profits).

• Occasional investments: May qualify for tax neutrality until disposal.

• Staking or airdrop income: Taxed as financial income.

Crypto Adoption Among Businesses

According to the ADAN 2025 study, 10% of the French population owns at least one crypto-asset, and 33% plan to invest.This rising adoption signals a growing interest in integrating crypto into corporate finance strategies.

Treasury diversification with cryptocurrencies can be a strategic move for businesses, provided risks are clearly understood and regulatory compliance is ensured.A thorough analysis and professional support are key to unlocking the full potential of these assets.
