摩根士丹利允许其顾问向部分客户提供比特币 ETF

从周三开始，该公司大约 15,000 名财务顾问可以招募符合条件的客户购买两只交易所交易的比特币基金的股票。

Morgan Stanley is set to become the first major Wall Street bank to allow its financial advisors to offer bitcoin exchange-traded funds to some clients, CNBC has learned.

据 CNBC 报道，摩根士丹利将成为第一家允许其财务顾问向部分客户提供比特币交易所交易基金的华尔街主要银行。

The firm’s 15,000 or so financial advisors will be able to solicit eligible clients to purchase shares of two ETFs starting Wednesday, according to people with knowledge of the policy.

据了解该政策的人士透露，从周三开始，该公司大约 15,000 名财务顾问将能够招揽符合条件的客户购买两只 ETF 的股票。

Those funds are BlackRock’s iShares Bitcoin Trust and Fidelity’s Wise Origin Bitcoin Fund, the people said.

知情人士称，这些基金是贝莱德 (BlackRock) 的 iShares Bitcoin Trust 和富达 (Fidelity) 的 Wise Origin 比特币基金。

The move from Morgan Stanley, one of the world’s largest wealth management firms, is the latest sign of the adoption of bitcoin by mainstream finance. In January, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission approved applications for 11 spot bitcoin ETFs, heralding the arrival of an investment vehicle for bitcoin that is easier to access, cheaper to own and more readily traded.

全球最大的财富管理公司之一摩根士丹利的此举是主流金融采用比特币的最新迹象。一月份，美国证券交易委员会批准了 11 只现货比特币 ETF 的申请，预示着一种更容易获得、更便宜且更容易交易的比特币投资工具的到来。

Bitcoin has weathered market sell-offs, the spectacular collapse of crypto exchange FTX and criticism from the most established figures in finance including JPMorgan Chase CEO Jamie Dimon and Berkshire Hathaway CEO Warren Buffett.

比特币经受住了市场抛售、加密货币交易所 FTX 的大幅崩溃，以及包括摩根大通首席执行官杰米戴蒙和伯克希尔哈撒韦首席执行官沃伦巴菲特在内的金融界最知名人士的批评。

So it’s not surprising that Wall Street’s major wealth management businesses didn’t immediately embrace the new ETFs, forbidding their financial advisors from pitching them and only allowing trades if clients actively sought out the product.

因此，华尔街的主要财富管理企业没有立即接受新的 ETF，并禁止其财务顾问推销这些产品，并且仅在客户积极寻找该产品时才允许进行交易，也就不足为奇了。

Goldman Sachs, JPMorgan, Bank of America and Wells Fargo still follow that policy, according to spokespeople at the four banks.

高盛、摩根大通、美国银行和富国银行四家银行的发言人表示，它们仍然遵循这一政策。
