BNP Paribas to Offer Six Bitcoin and Ether ETNs to French Retail Clients From March 30, 2026
Starting March 30, 2026, BNP Paribas will let retail clients in France access six Exchange Traded Notes (ETNs) linked to Bitcoin and Ether through ordinary brokerage accounts. The products provide price exposure without direct token ownership, while carrying issuer counterparty risk and operating under MiFID II rules. The rollout highlights a widening gap with Italy, where Consob still restricts retail distribution of crypto ETPs.
