Marex Group today announces its collaboration with WisdomTree, an ETF (exchange- traded fund) and ETP (exchange- traded product) issuer, to provide institutional investors tailored exposure to WisdomTree’s ETPs, in particular in the cryptocurrency space via Marex-issued structured products.
Linking Marex’s structured products with WisdomTree’s ETPs broadens the risk and return profile of investors and their options for access to cryptocurrencies. In addition to a direct allocation to its ETPs, WisdomTree can now also introduce specific solutions to further suit the risk and return objectives and constraints of investors through Marex-issued structured notes. These structured notes may reduce the downside risk for investors, enhance the upside exposure, or generate yield. WisdomTree is able to leverage Marex’s structuring and risk management expertise to tailor the product risk profiles to fit the requirements of clients who may have otherwise been unable to invest.
This collaboration provides investors access to two complementary areas of expertise, in particular around digital assets: combining the broad and specialised ETP offering of WisdomTree with Marex’s innovative and flexible derivatives capabilities.
Dovile Silenskyte, Director, Digital Assets Research, WisdomTree commented : “Our collaboration with Marex allows us to combine the transparency and accessibility of crypto ETPs with the structured solutions investors need to manage risk. These products offer a more measured way to participate in digital assets, balancing exposure with tools to address volatility and enhance yield potential. It’s a meaningful step toward bringing institutional-quality crypto strategies to a wider audience…”
Walter Cegarra, Head of Institutional Solutions, Financial Products, Marex commented: “We are delighted to bring Marex’s structuring and risk management capabilities to the service of WisdomTree and their clients – and to be able to leverage WisdomTree’s unique ETP offering. Our combined solutions allow investors to access diversifying asset classes, such as cryptos, and differentiated themes, such as European defence, with the benefit of a formal downside protection.”
The solutions cover a range of:
- Investment objectives: capital protection, yield enhancement, and/or leverage
- Underlyings – any of WisdomTree’s ETP offering, including:
- WisdomTree Physical CoinDesk 20 (WCRP)
- WisdomTree Physical Bitcoin (BTCW)
- WisdomTree Physical Ethereum (ETHW)
- WisdomTree Europe Defence UCITS ETF (WDEF)
- Or any other WisdomTree ETP/ETF
The terms of these products are fully customisable with respect to payoff, tenor, protection level, underlying, participation, currency and Marex can even embed custom overlays.
