AMP 在比特币市场迈出重大一步，成为首个寻求比特币投资的养老基金

在一项重大公告中，澳大利亚退休基金 AMP 宣布投资 2700 万美元比特币，从而在该资产类别中迈出了重大一步。

Australia’s retirement fund, AMP, has announced an investment of $27 million in Bitcoin, making it the first major superannuation fund to seek exposure to the asset class.

澳大利亚退休基金 AMP 宣布向比特币投资 2700 万美元，使其成为第一家寻求投资该资产类别的主要养老基金。

As several large funds from the $4 trillion retirement savings industry have decided to give it a pass considering BTC’s volatility, AMP’s move is significant.

由于考虑到 BTC 的波动性，来自 4 万亿美元退休储蓄行业的几家大型基金已决定对其放行，因此 AMP 的举动意义重大。

However, customers with assets in the fund’s balanced and growth investment options are most likely to have exposure to Bitcoin, according to AMP Chief Investment Officer Anna Shelly.

然而，AMP 首席投资官 Anna Shelly 表示，拥有该基金平衡型和成长型投资选择资产的客户最有可能接触比特币。

Shelly justified the investment by stating that $27 million was just 0.05% of its $57 billion in assets under management.

Shelly 为这项投资辩护，称 2700 万美元仅占其管理的 570 亿美元资产的 0.05%。

Earlier in May, AMP purchased Bitcoins when BTC was trading in the $60,000-$70,000 range. According to Shelley, the investment was part of a diversification strategy that supported Bitcoin due to its “momentum and sentiment.”

5 月初，当 BTC 交易价格在 60,000 美元至 70,000 美元区间时，AMP 购买了比特币。雪莱表示，这项投资是多元化战略的一部分，该战略因其“势头和人气”而支持比特币。

Other major funds have announced they will not be following suit despite AMP’s pioneering investment.

尽管 AMP 进行了开创性投资，但其他主要基金已宣布不会效仿。

Bitcoin has no place in the Australian economy, according to critics such as Reserve Bank governor Michele Bullock. He also shared concerns regarding Bitcoin’s stability and its lack of yield production stating that it’s unsuitable for retirement funds.

储备银行行长米歇尔·布洛克等批评人士表示，比特币在澳大利亚经济中没有地位。他还对比特币的稳定性及其缺乏收益率表示担忧，称其不适合退休基金。

Pension and retirement funds across the world have been seeking exposure to Bitcoin off-lately, especially with the launch of regulated investment products such as spot Bitcoin ETFs.

世界各地的养老基金和退休基金最近一直在寻求投资比特币，特别是随着现货比特币 ETF 等受监管投资产品的推出。

US states like Florida and Jersey City are already considering this option.

美国佛罗里达州和泽西城等州已经在考虑这种选择。

Since the launch earlier this year in January, spot bitcoin ETF demand has shot up to the roof. BlackRock’s iShares Bitcoin Trust ETF (IBIT) has been leading the pack with its assets under management crossing $50 billion.

自今年一月份推出以来，现货比特币 ETF 需求飙升。贝莱德 (BlackRock) 的 iShares 比特币信托 ETF (IBIT) 一直处于领先地位，其管理的资产超过 500 亿美元。

BlackRock Recommends 1-2% Exposure to Bitcoin

贝莱德建议持有 1-2% 的比特币

With BlackRock’s IBIT getting massive inquiries, the world’s largest asset manager went to make an official recommendation for seeking exposure to Bitcoin.

随着贝莱德的 IBIT 受到大量询问，全球最大的资产管理公司开始正式推荐寻求投资比特币。

As it has become known, BlackRock released a new report recommending a 1-2% allocation to Bitcoin ETFs, marking the first time the firm has provided a specific figure for exposure to the cryptocurrency. This recommendation comes in response to a high volume of client inquiries about how much to allocate to Bitcoin and its associated ETF, IBIT.

众所周知，贝莱德发布了一份新报告，建议将 1-2% 的资金分配给比特币 ETF，这标志着该公司首次提供了加密货币敞口的具体数字。这一建议是为了回应大量客户询问应分配多少比特币及其相关 ETF IBIT。

The report suggests that a 1-2% Bitcoin exposure could be appropriate for a diversified portfolio. It also offers clients a structured approach to incorporating cryptocurrency into their investments.

该报告表明，1-2% 的比特币敞口可能适合多元化投资组合。它还为客户提供了一种将加密货币纳入投资的结构化方法。

Interestingly, the BlackRock report goes on to mention that Bitcoin carries a risk profile comparable to that of the Magnificent Seven companies — Apple, Amazon, Tesla, Nvidia, Meta, Google, and Microsoft. The asset manager justified Bitcoin investments in the wake of rising geopolitical tensions, growing deficits, and the fragmentation of the global financial system, among other factors.

有趣的是，贝莱德的报告接着提到，比特币的风险状况与七大公司——苹果、亚马逊、特斯拉、英伟达、Meta、谷歌和微软——相当。在地缘政治紧张局势加剧、赤字增加以及全球金融体系碎片化等因素之后，该资产管理公司证明了比特币投资的合理性。
