Factor certificates offer a simple and efficient way to profit from stable price trends, be they rising or falling. They do so by leveraging the daily price performance of a so-called reference instrument, for example a share or an index. This allows investors to participate disproportionately in the performance of this reference instrument. The factor – i. e. the leverage – remains constant, and so the investment is equivalent to reinvestment on a daily basis.

Tracker certificates enable investors to invest in themes, strategies, regions, or countries, making it easier to diversify even with small amounts of money. Tracker certificates replicate the performance of the underlying asset without leverage, a cap, or capital protection. Investors participate nearly 1:1 in rising and falling prices of the underlying asset. The underlying assets can especially be indices or equity baskets. In this way, you can invest in a whole stock market or basket in only one transaction without having to buy all the individual stocks. This is why tracker certificates are a great product for targeted investment in specific themes.
