London, United Kingdom - Mar. 28, 2023 --
InvestorsHub NewsWire -- Fineqia International Inc.
(the "Company" or "Fineqia") (CSE: FNQ) (OTC: FNQQF) (Frankfurt: FNQA) is pleased to announce
that its subsidiary, Fineqia AG, has received approval of its base
prospectus by the Liechtenstein Financial Market Authority (FMA) to
offer Exchange Traded Notes (ETNs) collateralized by digital
assets.
Fineqia
AG is domiciled in Liechtenstein, which is a member of the European
Economic Area (EEA). The EEA includes EU countries as well as
Iceland, Liechtenstein, and Norway. It allows these countries to be
part of the EU's single market. Fineqia AG's base prospectus
complies with the European Union's (EU) passport directive.
The
base prospectus was approved on Mar. 23 pursuant to the EU's
Prospectus Regulation (EU) 2017/1129, for offering in the following
EU member states: Austria, Belgium, Cyprus, Czech Republic,
Germany, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Greece, Ireland, Italy,
Lithuania, Malta, Netherlands, Norway, Portugal, Poland, Slovenia,
Spain, and Slovakia.
"The
FMA's approval of the base prospectus will allow us to provide new
investment products and furthers our objective to bring innovation
to the digital asset industry," said Fineqia's CEO Bundeep Singh
Rangar. "The approval process was rigorous, and we're pleased to
have met the regulator's criteria for the approval of a base
prospectus."
Fineqia
AG's base prospectus outlines underlying digital assets including
fungible tokens such as Bitcoin, Ethereum, Cardano, Polkadot,
Uniswap, Stellar and Tezos, as well as non-fungible tokens
(NFTs).
Exchange Traded Products (ETPs) are an overall category that can
include Exchange Traded Funds (ETFs) and Exchange Traded Notes
(ETNs), each of which require specific approval.
Liechtenstein has been selected as a jurisdiction by other ETP
issuers including Germany's DDA ETP AG (formerly Iconic Holdings),
Guernsey-based DMAP PCC and SA1 Issuer Limited, Switzerland-based
Bitcoin Capital AG and Pando Asset AG, and the
Liechtenstein-domiciled VanEck ETP AG.
Fineqia's research revealed that ETPs with underlying crypto assets
worldwide had a 1% increase in assets
under management in February reaching $28 billion, as
the crypto market value increased by 1.5% during the same
month.
