Jean-Marie Mognetti, Chief Executive Officer of CoinShares said:
“I’m pleased to announce that Q1 2023 has underscored CoinShares’ robust resilience and adaptability. The financial landscape has been riddled with obstacles this quarter, yet, CoinShares has emerged not just unscathed, but stronger. Looking ahead, I remain optimistic about our industry and CoinShares’ place within it.”

- CoinShares, as Europe’s leading alternative asset manager for digital assets, is enhancing its portfolio of offerings in 2023 with the establishment of an active asset management business line.
- CoinShares’ Passive Asset Management division had a steady quarter, generating management fees of £9.2 million. CoinShares introduced fee-free services for our CoinShares Physical Ethereum ETP and launched two new crypto ETP indices: CoinShares Physical Top 10 Crypto Market, which provides exposure to a diverse range of cryptocurrencies for cost-effective diversification, and the CoinShares Physical Smart Contract Platform, which offers exposure to the infrastructure layers of the digital asset market. Amid market fluctuations, our collaboration with Invesco held firm globally, and funds linked to our BLOCK index attracted $20.8 million in new investments.
- CoinShares’ Capital Markets division reported gains and other income in Q1 of £6.7 million. During the past quarter the Capital Markets department has executed three strategic actions to mitigate risk and enhance due diligence: bolstering our counterparty controls and processes using internal expertise; pioneering professionalisation of the sector to reduce counterparty risks, including establishing proofs of concept with several exchanges and custodians for safer trading; and securing new banking partnerships to ensure smooth US dollar transactions in light of recent regulatory changes in the crypto market. These efforts have been instrumental in delivering performance over Q1.
