BNP Paribas has been offering exchange products for several years (stocks, bonds, ETFs, SCPIs, structured products), and is now extending its offering to six new crypto-asset-backed ETNs, available for subscription under the MIFID2 regulation, which provides for investor protection, that can be subscribed through a securities account or independently.
They are issued by well-known asset managers chosen by BNP Paribas for their solidity and risk management systems. From 30th March, 2026, the 6 crypto-asset ETNs started offering through a securities account to individual and entrepreneurial clients, private banking clients, and Hello bank! clients in France, with a gradual roll-out to BNP Paribas Wealth Management clients worldwide.
Meanwhile, BNP Paribas launched its 2030 Strategic Plan for its scaled and integrated Asset Management platform to support its trajectory toward a 13% Return on Tangible Equity by 2028. With the acquisition of AXA IM, BNP Paribas Asset Management has become a truly scaled and integrated Asset Management platform, with over €1.6 trillion in assets under management across Europe, covering the full asset-class spectrum and with a highly diversified mix across strategies and distribution channels.
Benefiting from the strength of BNP Paribas’ integrated model, including origination capabilities and broad distribution reach, the BNP Paribas Asset Management platform has emerged as a leader in Alternatives and long-term savings, as well as an expanding ETF franchise.
“BNP Paribas Asset Management is entering a new phase of transformation and growth driven by structurally supportive trends in savings and investments. With our 2030 Strategic Plan, our ambition is to strengthen our position as one of the most powerful European investment platforms. By combining quality and scale across public and private markets and the strength of the BNP Paribas ecosystem, we are uniquely positioned to connect savers and investors with all the opportunities of the real economy. Our mission is clear: deliver sustainable and resilient results for our clients while helping finance the economic transitions shaping the future,” said Sandro Pierri, Chief Executive Officer of BNP Paribas Asset Management.
