“Our conversations over the past year with financial advisors pointed to clear demand among their clients for access to this growing asset class” said Steven McClurg, co-founder and chief investment officer at Valkyrie Investments. “By taking a macro-focused, risk managed approach, we are able to offer access to potential upside of digital assets for their clients while also aiming to limit downside risk.”
All Valkyrie SMAs are IRA-eligible and enable direct ownership of digital assets, daily liquidity, the safety of a qualified custodian, and are research-driven using proprietary technology created specifically for this offering.
“Valkyrie SMAs are an institutional-caliber product built in response to feedback from investment professionals, and a desire to have a fully integrated product offering exposure to this asset class,” said Leah Wald, co-founder and chief executive officer at Valkyrie Investments. “They are a natural extension of the products we already offer to a wide variety of investor types and early feedback has been great, as we are already in the process of on-boarding a number of RIAs and financial advisors across the country.”
