DGAP-News: Rmetrics Association / Key word(s): Product Launch First investable product based on Rmetrics Stability Smart Beta Indices launched on 08.06.2016 Zurich 20.06.2016. As of June 8th 2016 interested investors can invest in the first available investable product based on the original Rmetrics Stability Smart Beta Indices from the Rmetrics Association Zurich: The “Tracker Certificate on the JIM San Bernardino Stability Indicator Index”. The certificate is foreseen for private placements and has been issued by Leonteq Zurich in cooperation with JACOT Investment Management AG Zurich and the Rmetrics Association Zurich. The underlying portfolio of the certificate is based on a selection of European government bonds and European equity indices. During stable market phases the equity index share can stepwise increase until reaching a maximum of 60% of the overall portfolio and decrease down to 0% during unstable markets such that in all market phases a stability-optimal portfolio is ensured. Clear advantages of these particular indices Rmetrics Stability Smart Beta Indices work as an excellent leading indicator to identify upcoming market risks – unstable phases in combination with downward trends. Also, upcoming stable market phases in combination with upwards trends can be identified early. This allows for a variety of investment strategies, which are reliable over very long periods. Rmetrics has been developing the technology behind the Rmetrics Stability Smart Beta Indices during the last years and has meanwhile implemented a thoroughly tested portfolio of Smart Beta Indices for over 1,000 assets/market benchmarks, which are calculated on a monthly basis. Stabilizing strategies aim to deliver a better return and risk profile than other Smart Beta strategies. Stability measures can positively contribute to many investment styles by identifying risks in the market at an early stage. Such risks can be identified through e.g. structural changes in the dynamical behavior of the price or index movements. Taking into consideration stability criteria allow to become more focused on controlling risks rather than simply maximizing returns.
