英国首个养老基金投资比特币

养老金专家卡特赖特告诉《企业顾问》杂志，将比特币纳入养老金计划是“大胆的一步，反映了相关受托人的前瞻性思维”。

A U.K. pension specialist is urging institutional investors to allocate assets into bitcoin (BTC) and has guided the country’s first pension fund to make an allocation into the token, industry magazine Corporate Advisor reported.

据行业杂志 Corporate Advisor 报道，一位英国养老金专家正在敦促机构投资者将资产配置为比特币（BTC），并指导该国首个养老基金对该代币进行了配置。

The unnamed fund last month allocated 3% of its £50 million ($65 million) into bitcoin following “lengthy consultations with the scheme’s trustees, where ESG, investment case and security were all addressed at length,” Glenn Cameron, head of digital assets at Cartwright told Corporate Advisor.

该未透露姓名的基金上个月将其 5000 万英镑（6500 万美元）中的 3% 分配给了比特币，此前“与该计划的受托人进行了长时间的磋商，其中 ESG、投资案例和安全性都得到了详细讨论”，该公司数字资产主管格伦·卡梅伦 (Glenn Cameron) 表示。卡特赖特告诉公司顾问。

This investment is particularly notable as the pension fund actually is investing in the crypto itself, rather than, for instance, a proxy such as an ETF. The private key is split between five independent institutions, according to the report.

这项投资尤其值得注意，因为养老基金实际上投资的是加密货币本身，而不是 ETF 等代理。报告称，私钥由五个独立机构分配。

What's also notable is the relative size of the investment. The State of Wisconsin pension, for instance, made news months ago by being the first U.S. state pension plan to invest in bitcoin (via the spot ETFs). That investment, though, footed to just about 0.1% of the plan's assets. This U.K. pension investment is for a far more sizable 3% of its assets.

同样值得注意的是投资的相对规模。例如，威斯康星州养老金计划在几个月前成为新闻，成为美国第一个投资比特币（通过现货 ETF）的国家养老金计划。不过，这项投资仅占该计划资产的 0.1% 左右。英国的养老金投资占其资产的 3%，规模要大得多。

Cartwright is also launching a Bitcoin Employee Benefits scheme, it said, which will allow employers to pay bitcoin into wallets created for their staff. Currently, five companies are interested in the product, Cartwright said.

卡特赖特还推出了一项比特币员工福利计划，该计划将允许雇主将比特币支付到为其员工创建的钱包中。卡特赖特说，目前有五家公司对该产品感兴趣。

It is unclear the amount of assets Cartwright currently advises on. The firm has anywhere from 51-200 employees, according to LinkedIn and is based in Hampshire in the U.K.

目前尚不清楚卡特赖特目前为多少资产提供建议。据 LinkedIn 称，该公司拥有 51 至 200 名员工，总部位于英国汉普郡
