iMaps issues ideal satellite building blocks for modern, diversified portfolios.
Liechtenstein, October 25, 2022 – The iMaps AktienTipp Community ETI Certificate (ISIN: DE000A3GZ3U7), a deposit-secured theme certificate from the European issuer iMaps ETI AG, has passed its baptism of fire: Following its launch and listing on the Stuttgart Stock Exchange, the first investments within this Actively Managed Certificate are showing a convincing performance – despite the recent corrections on the global stock markets, the product is currently trading above the issue price. The investment phase has now been completed and the product is fully invested.
The ETI is based on a multi-asset underlying that rests on three pillars: The first consists of shares in listed companies that are benefiting strongly from the growth of the stock market community in German-speaking countries. This includes shares in Baader Bank, Lang & Schwarz and smartbroker Holding, which form the fundamental infrastructure of the German private investor community. For example, Baader Bank is not only the settlement bank for many independent asset managers, but also the exclusive custodian of the neobroker scalable capital and finanzen.net zero. The bank is also a market maker on GETTEX, the electronic trading system of the Munich Stock Exchange, through which these neobrokers prefer to trade.
The second pillar consists of promising international return opportunities based on investment ideas from iMaps Capital Markets. These can also include alternative investments. They currently include, for example, shares in the Hipgnosis Song Fund, the Superfund All Weather Portfolio, small caps such as the tech incubator IP Group and the two Asian conglomerates Fosun International and CK Hutchison.
With the third pillar, iMaps delivered an absolute novelty in Germany: the iMaps AktienTipp Community ETI certificate is the first investment product in which private investors can help shape the asset allocation. In cooperation with AktienTipp Medien GmbH, which manages the largest investor group in the German-speaking world on Facebook, voting takes place at regular intervals on the aforementioned social media platform. The 32,500 group members can vote for their current favorite share. The one with the most votes is then included in the underlying share. This opportunity to have a say in the composition of the underlying is unique and characterizes the certificate. Shares that have found their way into the certificate in this way include Allianz and Microsoft.
“Our iMaps AktienTipp Community ETI has not only convinced numerous investors so far, but also the expert jury of the Zertifikate Awards Deutschland,” explains Andreas Wölfl, founder and Chairman of the Board of Directors of iMaps ETI AG. “The product is one of only 13 securitized derivatives traded on German stock exchanges to be nominated as “Certificate of the Year” in this year’s public vote on zertifikateawards.de. A result that naturally honors us.” Voting will continue until October 28.
