Valour has significantly expanded its digital asset offerings with the launch of eight new exchange-traded products (ETPs) on Sweden’s Spotlight Stock Market. These SEK-denominated ETPs provide regulated, accessible exposure to a diverse range of leading blockchain protocols and digital assets, including Bitcoin Cash (BCH), Unus Sed Leo (LEO), OKB (OKB), Polygon (POL), Algorand (ALGO), Filecoin (FIL), Arbitrum (ARB), and Stacks (STX). This strategic rollout strengthens Valour’s position as one of the most comprehensive digital asset ETP issuers globally.
Expanding Access to Top Digital Assets
The newly launched ETPs are designed to meet growing investor demand for diversified, compliant access to innovative blockchain ecosystems. Each product is listed on a regulated exchange, enabling investors to gain exposure through traditional brokerage accounts—without needing to manage private keys or navigate cryptocurrency exchanges directly.
This expansion brings Valour’s total number of listed ETPs to over 75 across major European markets, including Germany’s Börse Frankfurt and Euronext exchanges in Paris and Amsterdam. The company remains on track to reach its ambitious goal of 100 listed ETPs by the end of 2025.

Valour Arbitrum (ARB) SEK ETP
Arbitrum uses optimistic rollup technology to scale Ethereum while maintaining security through Ethereum’s mainnet consensus. It hosts thousands of dApps and is among the most widely adopted layer-2 solutions, offering significant performance improvements over base Ethereum.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q: What are ETPs and how do they differ from ETFs?
A: Exchange Traded Products (ETPs) are financial instruments traded on stock exchanges that track the price of an underlying asset—like a cryptocurrency. While similar to ETFs, ETPs may include structures like exchange-traded notes (ETNs) and often offer direct exposure to assets not typically available in traditional funds.
Q: Are these ETPs safe for retail investors?
A: Yes. These ETPs are listed on regulated exchanges, subject to strict oversight, and eliminate the need for self-custody of digital assets—reducing risks associated with hacking or loss of private keys.
Q: Can I buy these ETPs through my regular brokerage account?
A: Absolutely. The SEK-denominated ETPs are available through standard Nordic brokerage platforms, just like stocks or ETFs.
Q: How are these ETPs backed?
A: Each ETP is fully backed by the underlying digital asset, held in secure custody arrangements, ensuring transparency and trust.
Q: Why choose an ETP over buying crypto directly?
A: ETPs offer regulatory protection, integration with traditional portfolios, tax efficiency in certain jurisdictions, and ease of use—ideal for investors who prefer familiar investment channels.
Q: Is there a minimum investment required?
A: There is no fixed minimum; investors can purchase shares like any listed security, starting from a single share depending on their broker’s policies.
