Canadian asset investment fund manager 3iQ Digital Asset Management (3iQ) has selected Apex Group for fund administration, listed transfer agency and custody services.
Founded in 2012, 3iQ offers investors familiar investment products to gain exposure to digital assets and was also the first Canadian investment fund manager to offer a public Bitcoin investment fund.
