Since its launch in November 2011, the EasyTRACKERS range has successfully identified opportunities outside traditional asset classes while benefiting from BNP Paribas expertise in systematic investment strategies. It rounds out the range of listed products already offered by the bank, completing the EasyETF range.
EasyTRACKERS are entirely in line with the ETN universe, offering easy, innovative access to differentiating expertise across several asset classes, including volatility and dividends. They give portfolio managers efficient tools for direct, liquid exposure to markets that are now critical to diversified asset allocation.
Most EasyTRACKERS are fully collateralised with European government bonds (minimum rating by Standard & Poor’s: AA-). To ensure total transparency, their underlying collateral and indices composition are public and can be consulted at easytrackers.bnpparibas.com.
Pedro Fernandes, head of European Exchange Traded Products and Structured Products at NYSE Euronext, said: "We welcome this partnership with BNP Paribas, which can only encourage the development of ETNs. EasyTRACKERS will round out the range of asset management tools available on NYSE Euronext’s European market and boost our ETN segment. With this new product line we can offer professional investors greater exposure to a very wide variety of market sectors and asset classes that are difficult to access through other vehicles."
