3iQ and CoinDesk Indices Collaborate to Launch Funds Globally That Track the CoinDesk 20 Index
September 16 2024 - 8:02AM
Business Wire
3iQ Corp. (“3iQ”), a pioneer in digital asset management, today
announced it has partnered with CoinDesk Indices, a leading
provider of digital asset indices since 2014, to make the CoinDesk
20 Index available in several fund structures globally, starting
with CoinDesk 20 SP (the “Fund”), a Segregated Portfolio Company of
3iQ Investment Partners SPC.
This partnership marks a milestone in 3iQ’s mission to bring
clients innovative investment products and provide global investors
desired access to a diversified digital asset portfolio as they
seek to expand their exposure beyond bitcoin.
The collaboration continues the relationship between two trusted
organizations with expertise in offering investor access and
choice. Designed for scalability, the CoinDesk 20 tracks the
performance of top digital assets, applying a capped market
capitalization-weighted methodology to improve diversification,
similar to major equity indexes. The Fund will follow all 20
constituents in the index.
"CoinDesk Indices provides a highly liquid and tradeable means
to access digital assets," said Pascal St-Jean, President & CEO
of 3iQ. "Advisors have an appetite for digital assets but don’t
have the conviction to track assets beyond Bitcoin. This offering
opens up broad-based exposure as they seek a diversified digital
asset portfolio.”
“The CoinDesk 20 has been embraced by leading market-making
firms, unlocking the digital asset opportunity in one step,” said
Alan Campbell, President of CoinDesk Indices. “We are thrilled 3iQ
will enable investors worldwide to access the CoinDesk 20,
addressing the growing need for diversified digital asset
exposure.”
3iQ will leverage its extensive experience by utilizing multiple
custodians and staking providers. The Fund will offer monthly
liquidity, and 3iQ will be waiving the management fee for the first
6 months.
