Structured Investments

Structured investments are based on performance sources provided by different asset categories, such as shares, bonds, currencies, commodities or real estate. The possibility to adapt market risks to the specific needs of an investor, meeting exactly his risk/return expectations, generates transparency and, most of all, reliability and stability. Structured products are an innovative alternative to conventional types of investment. In order to meet the diverse needs of our customers as best as possible, we have developed specific product lines.

Because of their variety and flexibility, certificates are suitable for many different types of investors and risk profiles. The underlying instruments, such as stocks, bonds, indexes, currencies and commodities, allow for positive earnings not only in rising, but also in sideways or downward markets. Structured investments can be traded any time. The issuers constantly update the bid and offer prices for their products.

Types of certificates

  • Guarantee certificates combine a capital guarantee with the chance for a return. Couponoriented guarantee certificates offer a 100% guarantee, a fixed interest rate and the chance to earn more. Growth-oriented guarantee certificates allow for attractive returns on currency, equity and commodity markets – with a 100% capital guarantee.
  • Airbag Certificates offer unlimited opportunities for revenues in profitable stock and commodity markets. The airbag implicates a capital guarantee within the safety margins and a chance for outperformance with a manageable risk.
  • Index certificates are the ideal product for investors who prefer to invest in markets instead of individual securities.

The capital investment company and the FMA points out that the Investment Fund Act (InvFG) 2011 is effective as of 01.09.2011. The legal references set out in the Fund Rules and the sales prospectuses refer to the InvFG 1993 because the Fund Rules were approved on the basis of the legal regulations valid at that time.

The asset management company will conduct transactions for the asset management fund with derivatives, particularly OTC derivatives to secure fund assets and as part of the investment strategy. This increases the risk of loss regarding the assets in the fund. OTC derivatives are executed with multiple counterparties.
The asset management fund can have a higher volatility than the underlying asset due to its use of options in certain market situations, i.e. the value of the investment can have major gains or losses within short periods of time.
