BITCOIN-CAPITAL
2.12.2021 09:13:12 CET | Business Wire | Press release
Bitcoin Capital announced today that it has again listed two world firsts on the SIX Swiss Exchange. With 1 FiCAS Active Bitcoin ETP and 1 FiCAS Active Ethereum ETP, the company has launched two products actively managed by the highly experienced crypto asset manager FICAS AG . With active management, the products aim to counter negative price fluctuations and therefore outperform the two largest cryptocurrencies by capitalization. With the listing, institutional, professional, and private investors in Switzerland, Liechtenstein, and the European Union (excluding Hungary) can easily invest in the new products via their bank or broker, just as they do with other listed financial investments such as equities or bonds.
"Our purpose is to grant investors safe and easy access to digital assets and are convinced that crypto assets will soon be part of the diversification strategy of many investment portfolios. The two new products with the most relevant cryptocurrencies as underlying may, through their active management, improve the overall portfolio risk by reducing underlying volatility," said Dr. Luca Schenk, Chairman of Bitcoin Capital AG .
As a pioneer in innovative investment products, Bitcoin Capital AG has already proven itself in 2020 with the launch of the world's first exchange-listed actively managed crypto ETP - 15 FiCAS Active Crypto ETP (Symbol BTCA | ISIN CH0548689600). With the new products, the crypto journey will be far from over and more investment solutions are already being planned.
