The product allows investors to add CRO exposure to their portfolios through brokers and banks, without handling crypto wallets or exchanges.

This is the latest addition to the Zurich-based firm’s growing list of crypto-linked ETPs, which already cover various cryptocurrencies. The Swiss asset manager has also been moving to expand its offering in the U.S. with a recent S-1 registration form for a SUI ETF.

The price of CRO is down around 1.4% for the day, in line with a broader cryptocurrency market movement.
