CoinShares has officially become the first crypto asset manager based in continental Europe to receive a license under the European Union’s Markets in Crypto Assets (MiCA) regulation. The approval, granted by France’s financial regulator, Autorité des Marchés Financiers (AMF), allows the Jersey-based firm to offer crypto portfolio management services across all 27 EU member states under one unified framework.
The firm already operates in Germany, the Netherlands, and Luxembourg, and plans to expand further across Europe. With this new MiCA license, combined with its existing MiFID and AIFM approvals, CoinShares is now the only major European asset manager to hold all three key EU regulatory credentials, strengthening its position in the digital asset space.
CEO Jean-Marie Mognetti called the approval a major milestone for both CoinShares and the European crypto industry. He said the MiCA framework offers a clear, harmonized structure, and positions CoinShares to help open the €33 trillion European asset management market to regulated crypto investment products.
