“As MassMutual explores ways to integrate cryptocurrency into different areas of its business, MMLIS saw a growing demand from our financial professionals and their clients to gain bitcoin exposure.” – commented Daken Vanderburg – Head of Investments at MMLIS.
- Vanderburg added that this is just “another step” for the company on its way to place the cryptocurrency on its “product shelf with the goal of ensuring our financial professionals and clients have the tools they need to continue to build broadly diversified portfolios.”
- Robert Gutmann, co-founder and CEO of NYDIG, praised the insurance company’s efforts as it continues to “innovate and lead the pack when it comes to Bitcoin.”
