NEW YORK, March 11–VanEck, a global investment management firm, and Basic Capital Group (“Basic Capital”), the fintech 401(k) platform modernizing retirement savings, today announced a co-marketing partnership to highlight the availability of select VanEck digital asset exchange-traded products within Basic Capital’s 401(k) platform. The initiative will bring increased awareness of digital asset investment options to retirement plan participants seeking diversified, forward-looking portfolio strategies.
The partnership reflects growing demand from American workers for access to digital asset exposure within their retirement accounts. As regulatory developments continue to open the door to alternative investments in employer-sponsored plans, VanEck and Basic Capital are collaborating to meet this moment by making institutional-quality digital asset products accessible through a modern 401(k) experience.
“At VanEck, we’ve spent decades identifying transformative investment themes early — from gold in 1968 to digital assets today,” said Kyle DaCruz, Director of Digital Assets Product at VanEck. “Partnering with Basic Capital allows us to bring that same forward-thinking approach to the retirement space, giving 401(k) participants access to the digital asset strategies that we believe will play an important role in diversified portfolios for years to come.”
“Basic Capital was founded on the belief that the 401(k) is long overdue for an upgrade,” said Nate Taylor, Head of Growth at Basic Capital. “Working with a firm like VanEck — one with a 70-year track record of staying ahead of the curve — is a natural fit for our mission. Together, we’re expanding what’s possible inside a retirement plan and giving workers access to the asset classes shaping the future of finance.”
