Perfect Solutions for Asset Managers
iMaps Exchange Traded Instruments (ETIs) are innovative investment products that enable investors to access the returns of a market or strategy that would otherwise be difficult to access through listed securities. The iMaps Platform enables investment managers to launch investible strategies in a short period and keep overheads to a minimum. ETIs are issued as Actively Managed Certificates (AMCs) or Fund-Linked Notes.
Investors can invest in ETIs by simply buying them on the Stuttgart Stock Exchange, just as easily as buying a share or an ETF. They can either purchase ETIs through their regular bank/broker or use international online brokers such as Interactive Brokers or Swissquote.
Stock Exchange — ETIs trade on the Stuttgart Stock Exchange, the largest exchange globally for Structured Investment Products and Actively Managed Certificates.
iMaps ETI Platform — iMaps ETI AG issues the ETI units under an approved base prospectus for the issuance of Exchange Traded Instruments. iMaps passports the offering into the desired European countries, lists the ETI units on the stock exchange, and invests the proceeds from the issuance into the underlying assets. These underlying assets are pledged to Intertrust Group for the benefit of the ETI Investors to protect them from any Issuer Risk.
Segregated Portfolio — iMaps instructs the creation of a Segregated Portfolio by its subsidiary for each ETI, and the designated Segregated Portfolio serves as the underlying for the ETI units. The Segregated Portfolio opens an account with the chosen broker to execute the investment strategy.
Asset Manager — The asset manager receives direct market access to execute the portfolio allocation at the brokerage account on behalf of the Segregated Portfolio. There is no limit on the number of portfolio rebalancing actions, and these can – for the avoidance of any doubt – be done on an intraday basis. Limit orders are accepted on all instruments, and the asset manager can invest in any assets the broker executes orders in.
In case of a Fund-Linked Note the Segregated Portfolio is set up as a feeder into the fund or portfolio of funds and simply invests the proceeds into the underlying fund or portfolio of funds.
