Leonteq AG announced the launch of three exchange traded products (ETPs) on indices replicating the FuW model portfolios (FuW-Risk-Portfolio, FuW-Value Portfolio and FuW Eco Portfolio). Leonteq and Finanz und Wirtschaft (FuW) are further expanding their successful collaboration following the launch of a series of investment products which recorded a solid interest among investors and are now launching three new ETPs+ respectively on the FuW Risk Portfolio Index NTR, FuW Value Portfolio Index NTR and FuW Eco Portfolio Index NTR. The ETP+ are listed on SIX Swiss Exchange AG and are available to institutional and retail investors in Switzerland.

The FuW Risk Portfolio, launched in 1995, primarily focuses on undervalued Swiss equities (large, mid and small caps) with a higher degree of risk and a short to medium investment horizon. The selection of model portfolio components is made by the FuW editorial team based on fundamental analysis and aiming to achieve a higher return than the Swiss Performance Index by investing in riskier equities. The FuW Value Portfolio, launched in 2008, is an international equity portfolio focusing on both European and North American markets.

The model portfolio components are chosen from all sectors, replicating investments in global value stocks with medium to long investment horizon. Allocation of components is made by the Fu W editorial team relying on a proprietary model based on fundamental analysis, aiming to achieve a better risk and return profile than the S&P 500, the STOXX EUROPE 50 and the Swiss Market Index. The FuW Eco Portfolio, launched in 2020, includes Swiss, European and US companies that pursue an environmentally sustainable strategy, particularly focused on carbon emission reduction.

The model portfolio components must meet both sustainable and financial requirements, such as having an attractive valuation and a sound balance sheet with low debt.
