Jacobi Asset Management announced the launch of Jacobi Bitcoin ETF, which is set to be listed on Euronext Amsterdam.
According to the press release shared with Finance Magnates, the Bitcoin ETF received the regulatory green light from the Guernsey Financial Services Commission (GFSC) in October 2021 and will start trading in early July under the ticker BCOIN. In addition, the firm noted that custodial services will be powered by Fidelity Digital Assets, while market makers would be Flow Traders and DRW.
“The Jacobi Bitcoin ETF will enable investors to access the underlying performance of this exciting asset class via a well-established and trusted investment structure. Our goal at Jacobi is to make digital asset investments simpler and more familiar for institutional and professional investors. We are delighted to be working with all our premier partners, including Fidelity Digital Assets and Flow Traders, who have supported us from inception and are an integral part of this European first as we list on Euronext Amsterdam,” Jamie Khurshid, the CEO of Jacobi Asset Management, commented.
He added: “This is a significant step forward for Jacobi Asset Management. We have an ambitious vision and look forward to bringing an innovative product pipeline to the market very soon.”
The instrument becomes the first exchange-traded equity one for institutional investors to access Bitcoin in Europe, the company noted. “The first listed crypto ETF in the EU is indeed a proud achievement and we are happy that we were able to assist Jacobi Asset Management to achieve this goal,” Emanuel van Praag, an Attorney from Kennedy Van der Laan, pointed out.
