Valour Expands into the Swiss Market with New Staking ETPs on SIX Exchange
Valour's Expansion into the Swiss Market
Valour, a prominent issuer of exchange-traded products (ETPs), recently took a significant step by entering the Swiss market. The company launched two new staking ETPs on the SIX Swiss Exchange: 1Valour Hedera (HBAR) and 1Valour Internet Computer (ICP). This marks an important milestone for Valour as it broadens its reach in Europe and aims to enrich investment avenues for Swiss investors.
A New Era of Investment Opportunities
The newly listed products offer investors secure exposure to HBAR and ICP, backed by the native staking rewards. This structure grants investors the advantage of holding cryptocurrencies without the complexities related to digital wallets or custodianship. Instead, staking rewards are seamlessly integrated into the product's net asset value, making it easier for retail and institutional investors to access digital assets.
Details About the Listed Products
1Valour Hedera (HBAR) is linked to the Hedera network, recognized for its high throughput and enterprise-level applications based on proof-of-stake technology. Investors can gain access to HBAR while benefiting from its staking rewards, allowing them to capture returns without any need for technical knowledge or management of assets.
On the other hand, 1Valour Internet Computer (ICP) enables secure, scalable smart contract executions and blockchain functionalities tied to the decentralized networks of the Internet Computer. This ETP also allows investors to reap the benefits of staking yields, thus participating in the ecosystem's economic activity effortlessly.
A Rapidly Expanding Portfolio
With the official launch of these ETPs, Valour has now successfully listed over 75 ETPs across Europe, a considerable achievement as they inch closer towards their target of 100 ETPs by the close of 2025. This growth trajectory not only showcases Valour's commitment to meeting increasing demands for regulated crypto investment products but also highlights their strategic positioning in the competitive financial landscape.
Johanna Belitz, Head of Nordics and DACH at Valour, expressed her excitement about the launch, stating, "This product introduction on the SIX Swiss Exchange is a major step in our mission to democratize access to digital assets. We believe Switzerland's progressive stance on regulatory crypto products opens up new avenues for investor engagement with yield-bearing protocols like HBAR and ICP."
Elaine Buehler, Head of Products at Valour, highlighted the significance of this launch in meeting both institutional and retail investor interests by providing "secure and accessible structures designed to enhance investment simplicity."
Future Insights
Valour's debut in Switzerland brings additional considerations around the adoption of decentralized finance (DeFi) and digital asset management as it solidifies its foothold in a forward-thinking market. As the cryptocurrency landscape evolves, Valour is set to play a significant role in redefining accessible finance through regulated products that align with modern investment needs.
In summary, Valour’s expansion to the SIX Swiss Exchange symbolizes not just a product launch but represents broader trends in the financial world where traditional markets increasingly intersect with innovative digital solutions. This is expected to resonate well with both seasoned and new investors, simplifying their journey in the realm of digital assets.
