Think of it like a certified recipe and passport for retail funds: it assures basic safeguards such as diversification, liquidity and clear reporting, which helps investors compare options, reduces risk of surprise practices, and makes funds easier to buy across borders. etpfinancial"The platform sits alongside the Company's existing ETP franchise"An ETP (exchange-traded product) is a financial instrument you can buy and sell on a stock exchange that gives exposure to an asset or strategy—think of it as a tradable basket or a market-priced IOU tied to stocks, bonds, commodities, or an index. It matters to investors because it packs diversified or targeted exposure into a single, stock-like share, affecting portfolio risk, costs, and liquidity in ways that can be more convenient or more risky than buying individual assets. operating leveragefinancial"The platform is designed to generate significant operating leverage"Operating leverage measures how much a company's profits are affected by changes in sales volume. When a business has high operating leverage, small increases in sales can lead to much larger increases in profit, much like a lever amplifies force. It matters to investors because it indicates how sensitive a company's earnings are to fluctuations in sales, affecting risk and potential returns. View in glossaryassets under managementfinancial"as Assets Under Management increase"Assets under management (AUM) is the total value of all the investments that a financial company or fund is responsible for overseeing on behalf of its clients. It’s like a big bucket that shows how much money the firm is managing for people or organizations. A higher AUM often indicates a larger, more trusted company, and it can influence how much money they earn and the services they can offer. AI-generated analysis. How Rhea-AI works.

The platform sits alongside the Company's existing ETP franchise and broader asset management capabilities, further evolving CoinShares into a multi-engine, highly scalable asset management platform. The move reflects CoinShares' long-term strategy of diversifying its ability to create and launch products efficiently across exchange-traded products, regulated investment funds, alternative investment strategies and on-chain asset management. Together, these complementary platforms create multiple avenues for recurring fee generation while reducing dependence on any single product category. With this platform, CoinShares establishes itself within Europe's UCITS ecosystem, which held €26. 3 trillion in net assets as of April 2026 (EFAMA). While traditional debt-based crypto ETPs face strict allocation limits among institutional investors, the UCITS framework allows CoinShares to address Europe's largest institutional allocators — including pension funds, insurance platforms, and private banks — whose investment mandates widely permit UCITS-compliant funds and ETFs. This significantly expands the range of investors CoinShares can serve without changing its underlying investment expertise. CoinShares is not entering this market cold. Through its existing digital asset investment products, the Company already serves and holds long-standing relationships with many of these allocators. Until today, the constraint to investment was the wrapper, not the relationship: their mandates could not hold a debt security, however physically backed. The UCITS platform removes that constraint, allowing CoinShares to serve those same investors, and the far larger pool of capital behind them, in the format their mandates already accommodate. Inaugurating the platform, the CoinShares Bitcoin Mining UCITS ETF (which launched on 16 July 2026) begins trading today on Deutsche Börse Xetra, becoming the first strategy launched from the platform. The long-term strategic significance for shareholders lies in the platform's scalable, asset-light economics. With the up-front capital investment and regulatory groundwork complete, including Central Bank of Ireland authorization, CoinShares has an authorized UCITS vehicle within its group structure, exclusive to the Company. This provides the operational framework to create and launch future products at progressively lower marginal cost: an industrialised launch process, in which each additional fund draws on the same authorised structure with a significantly shorter runway for individual authorisation. Operating with a largely fixed cost base, the platform is designed to generate significant operating leverage, allowing a growing proportion of incremental revenues to convert into operating profit as Assets Under Management increase. The Company expects to use the platform to launch additional digital asset and thematic investment strategies over time, building a repeatable capability to create and launch regulated funds that extends well beyond today's inaugural fund. Jean-Marie Mognetti, Co-Founder, President and Chief Executive Officer of CoinShares, commented:"For more than a decade we have built one of Europe's leading crypto ETP businesses. Today's announcement is significant because we are extending that capability, creating and launching products efficiently, into the UCITS fund market. This is not simply the launch of another investment product. It marks our entry into the UCITS market with a platform that allows us to develop and launch regulated investment funds under one of the world's most widely recognised fund frameworks. The platform broadens the range of investors we can serve, creates an additional source of recurring management fee revenues and gives us a repeatable framework from which to launch future investment strategies. For shareholders, the key point is that the upfront investment has now been made. We believe the platform provides operating leverage as additional products and assets are added over time.
