Event Summary

Further Asset Management and 3iQ Corp. announced the introduction of USD Class II, a new share class for their Further 3iQ Alpha Digital Fund. This new share class allows USD-denominated investors to gain long Bitcoin exposure alongside alpha generation without directly holding or converting into Bitcoin. The USD Class II combines an absolute return product with a long Bitcoin position, enabling investors to benefit from Bitcoin's scarcity and convexity through a simple USD allocation. This expands the Fund's offerings to three distinct share classes, providing allocators with flexibility to tailor exposures based on their portfolio risk and return objectives. The move aims to meet the increasing demand from institutional investors for combined Bitcoin exposure and disciplined alpha generation within a risk-managed, USD-denominated structure.
