**Hashdex Continues to Bolster U.S. Presence With Key Senior Sales**

**Team Hires** 

 

*New Hires Elizabeth Ward, Kollin Hancock and Lorissa Rawlinson Reflect Continued Expansion of U.S. ETF Distribution Team and Strengthened Advisor Engagement* 

**New York – May 21, 2026** – Hashdex Asset Management Ltd. ("Hashdex"), a global crypto asset manager and pioneer in regulated digital asset investment solutions, today announced the addition of three senior leaders to its U.S. distribution team, further expanding the firm's local presence and connectivity with financial advisors and institutional investors across the country.

This announcement builds on Hashdex's recent U.S. leadership expansion, following the March appointment of Mick McLaughlin as the firm's U.S. Chief Executive Officer and Head of Global Distribution. With that momentum, Hashdex now welcomes Elizabeth Ward, Kollin Hancock and Lorissa Rawlinson to help strengthen the firm's U.S. sales team and support distribution and growth efforts for its index-based crypto ETF offerings in the market, most notably the Hashdex Nasdaq CME Crypto Index ETF (NCIQ).

Elizabeth Ward has been appointed as Vice President, Market Leader of the Southwestern region; Kollin Hancock will join the team as Vice President, Market Leader of the Pacific Northwestern region; and Lorissa Rawlinson will take on the role as Director, Market Leader of National Accounts.

This deepened bench of sales talent is reflective of the firm's continued investment in U.S. distribution capabilities as adoption of regulated crypto investment products increases among advisors and institutions. The new members are equipped to support Hashdex's efforts to strengthen relationships with allocators seeking long-term crypto exposure through ETF structures.

"We're thrilled to welcome Elizabeth, Kollin, and Lorissa to our growing U.S. distribution team. They are stationed in key regions across the U.S. and will help scale our ETF platform while also strengthening our distribution network with financial advisors and institutional investors," said Mick McLaughlin, U.S. CEO and Global Head of Distribution at Hashdex. "Their addition to the team reflects our momentum in the U.S. market as demand for institutional-quality crypto index ETFs continues to grow. With the expanded team, Hashdex is better positioned to deepen relationships across the market and advance our long-term vision of becoming the crypto asset management partner of choice in the U.S."
