On March 16, 2026, Hashdex Asset Management Ltd. announced a significant reduction in the management fee for the Hashdex Nasdaq CME Crypto Index ETF (NCIQ), lowering it from 0.50% to 0.25% per annum. This change, effective immediately, replaces a temporary fee waiver that had been in place. The decision reflects Hashdex's commitment to making its investment products more accessible and aligned with the interests of investors, including advisors, institutions, and high-net-worth individuals. Mick McLaughlin, U.S. CEO and Global Head of Distribution at Hashdex, emphasized that this fee reduction is intended to facilitate broader participation in the dynamic crypto asset market, particularly as investors seek diversified exposure through a single ETF. The NCIQ ETF, which was launched in February 2025, tracks the Nasdaq CME Crypto Index, providing exposure to major cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin, Ethereum, and others. The fund aims to evolve alongside the crypto markets and regulatory frameworks, maintaining its position as a pioneer in crypto index investing. Hashdex currently manages approximately $1 billion in assets across various index products, reinforcing its role in the growing field of digital asset ETFs.
