Swiss bank UBS significantly increased its exposure to BlackRock's iShares Bitcoin Trust (IBIT) in Q2 by raising call option holdings 24-fold to 1.95 million shares and increasing direct IBIT shares by 12% to 407,890. Meanwhile, its put option exposure dropped by about 53% to 143,300 shares. This move aligns with UBS's broader strategy to expand client access to digital assets, although the filing does not clarify if these changes are due to client demand, market-making, or proprietary trading. The lack of details on strike prices and expirations makes it difficult to assess UBS's net position fully.
