Nordea to List CoinShares Synthetic Bitcoin ETP for Clients in December

MiCA-era regulatory clarity prompted the bank to open execution-only access for experienced investors.

Overview

  • Nordea says customers will be able to trade a Bitcoin-linked synthetic ETP starting in December 2025 on its execution-only platform, with no investment advice provided.
  • The product will be manufactured by CoinShares International Limited and offers price exposure without direct custody of Bitcoin.
  • Clients will access the ETP through their standard investment accounts, removing the need for separate crypto wallets.
  • Nordea cites the EU’s Markets in Crypto-Assets framework as the key enabler, with reporting also noting CoinSharesFCA-approved base prospectus for Bitcoin and Ethereum ETPs.
  • The bank, which manages roughly €648 billion in assets, frames the move within a wider European shift toward regulated crypto ETP distribution.
