Nordea Bank, one of Northern Europe’s largest financial institutions, has announced plans to launch a synthetic exchange-traded product (ETP) linked to Bitcoin (BTC) starting in December 2025.
The move highlights how traditional banks are increasingly integrating digital assets into their financial offerings.
The synthetic ETP will allow investors to gain exposure to Bitcoin’s price movements without directly holding the cryptocurrency, providing a potentially safer and more regulated investment vehicle.
Analysts view Nordea’s initiative as a clear signal of the European crypto market’s growing maturity, and potentially a blueprint for other major banks exploring digital asset products.
