Luxembourg Sovereign Wealth Fund Invests 1% in Bitcoin ETFs

  • Luxembourg's Intergenerational Sovereign Wealth Fund (FSIL) has invested 1% of its holdings into Bitcoin ETFs, marking the first instance of a Eurozone state-level fund doing so.
  • The investment reflects Luxembourg’s new strategy for digital finance, approved in July 2025, acknowledging the maturity of cryptocurrencies as an asset class.
  • Other European countries, including Finland, Georgia, and the U.K., hold Bitcoin, mainly from criminal seizures. Georgia holds 66 BTC for investment purposes.
  • FSIL, established in 2014, aims to secure resources for future generations and currently manages $730 million, predominantly in high-quality bonds.
  • A revised investment framework allows FSIL to allocate up to 15% of its assets to alternative investments such as private equity, real estate, and crypto assets.
  • The fund's Bitcoin exposure is managed through ETFs to minimize operational risks.
  • The decision to invest 1% in Bitcoin aims to balance risk while indicating confidence in Bitcoin’s long-term potential.
