Leuthold Group Chief Investment Officer Jim Paulsen told Reuters he is frustrated by not being able to hold bitcoin for his clients. Leuthold Group manages $1 billion but regulatory barriers prevent the firm from holding cryptocurrency.

Wealth managers are clamoring for the approval of bitcoin exchange-traded funds (ETFs) that would meet the legal standards required of traditional investments, according to Reuters.

“What I like about bitcoin is… its correlation to stocks and other assets is extraordinarily independent,” Paulsen told Reuters.
