UniCredit SpA introduced a structured investment product connected to BlackRock's iShares Bitcoin Trust ETF, available to professional clients in Italy from July 1 to July 28. The investment will be a five-year certificate with full capital protection and a minimum investment of $25,000. The potential returns are capped at 85% of the ETF's performance. This move responds to rising institutional interest in regulated Bitcoin investments, indicated by the growth of BlackRock's ETF, managing $75 billion since its U.S. launch in January 2024.
The bank plans to issue a five-year, dollar-denominated investment certificate linked to the iShares Bitcoin Trust ETF which will offer a 100% capital protection at maturity.
We are seeing increasing interest from professional investors in instruments tied to emerging asset classes such as cryptocurrencies.
With this product, we offer our professional clients a distinctive solution -the first of its kind in Italy.
On March 25, 2025, BlackRock expanded its footprint in the space with the launch of a Bitcoin exchange traded product in Europe.
