BlackRock Canada introduced the iShares Equity + Bitcoin ETF Portfolio (IBQT) on the Toronto Stock Exchange, allocating 97% to global equities and 3% to Bitcoin via underlying iShares ETFs. This product offers Canadian investors diversified exposure to stocks across multiple markets plus Bitcoin in a single, low-cost fund with a 0.22% management fee. The launch reflects BlackRock's strategy to integrate regulated Bitcoin exposure into broader portfolios rather than standalone crypto ETFs. Alongside IBQT, BlackRock also launched XINT, an international equity ETF excluding North America, expanding options for Canadian investors seeking global diversification.
