This milestone enables the launch of ETFs alongside traditional UCITS products, offering international asset managers an efficient \u201cplug-and-play\u201d solution for market entry into Luxembourg.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">This latest approval builds on the momentum of Waystone\u2019s Irish ETF white-label solution, which went live in 2024, and marks the next step in expanding cross-border distribution opportunities for global clients.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Waystone has recently seen a sharp increase in demand for its ETF platform solutions, particularly from active managers who see significant value in accessing a complementary set of capabilities \u2013 enabling them to scale more efficiently and accelerate entry to the ETF market.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Luxembourg was selected due to its position as a leading cross-border fund domicile and the platform is fully ETF-ready and underpinned by a high-quality operational and regulatory framework.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><span style=\"color: #56aa1c;\"><strong>Paul Heffernan, CEO \u2013 Waystone ETFs<\/strong><\/span> commented: \u201cThe ETF conversation has fundamentally shifted \u2013 clients are no longer asking whether they need an ETF strategy, but how quickly they can bring one to market. We\u2019re seeing strong demand from institutional managers based in the US, Europe, Middle East, Asia and Australasia who want to focus their efforts on product development and distribution, while relying on us to provide the right operational framework. Expanding our platform in Luxembourg allows us to meet that demand at scale, and continue aligning our services to where our clients see the greatest opportunity.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong><span style=\"color: #56aa1c;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.etfworld.com\/co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Harty-Denis-Waystone.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-62065 alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/www.etfworld.com\/co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Harty-Denis-Waystone.jpg\" alt=\"Harty Denis Waystone\" width=\"400\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.etfworld.com\/co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Harty-Denis-Waystone.jpg 750w, https:\/\/www.etfworld.com\/co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Harty-Denis-Waystone-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><\/a>Denis Harty, Country Head \u2013 Continental Europe<\/span><\/strong> added: \u201cLuxembourg has long been recognised as a leading cross-border fund domicile, and the recent momentum around ETFs is another example of its ability to innovate and adapt.
