Swiss derivatives boutique Leonteq is expanding the range of digital-asset-based products it offers.
Zurich-based derivatives specialist Leonteq is expanding its digital asset offering significantly by adding 13 new crypto products, it said in a press release Tuesday.
The new crypto products added to its platform will have Aave, Algorand, Cardano, Chainlink, Cosmos, EOS, Ethereum Classic, Filecoin, Maker, Polkadot, Stellar, Tezos and Uniswap as their underlying assets.
Suitable for Asset Managers
Tracker certificates on these crypto assets are now available for investors either as listed products on SIX or BX Swiss as well as products without listing, depending on the underlying asset, Leonteq said, adding that they would also be eligible for integration into the index strategies of asset managers used within actively managed certificates.
The new products take the total to 18, including those with Bitcoin, Bitcoin Cash, Ethereum, Litecoin and Ripple as their underlying assets.
Confidence in Asset Class
«We are convinced that crypto assets will become an established asset class, and we aim to facilitate our clients with the ability to invest and trade in this field,» Leonteq’s head of Investment Solutions, Alessandro Ricci, said the statement.
In a recent media interview Leonteq CEO Lukas Ruflin said he did not think interest in cryptocurrencies had peaked and that crypto was an area where the company was well placed to grow.
