Digital Finance: Cutting Out the Middle Men

Blockchain technology makes it possible to cut out the middle men of finance – banks, mortgage brokers and insurers – through so-called smart contracts. While it’s still early days, digital finance (also called decentralized) is growing fast. Yet smart contract platforms are still competing to be tomorrow’s winners, which is why our ETN invests in a dynamic basket of leaders.

Main Risk Factors

Icon

The trading prices of many digital assets have experienced extreme volatility in recent periods and may well continue to do so. Digital assets were only introduced within the past decade and regulatory clarity remains elusive in many jurisdictions. Digital assets' value depends on such regulation remaining favorable, as well with the technological capabilities, the development of protocol networks, competition from other digital asset networks and from forks. Volatility can be strongly amplified by transactions from speculative investors, hedge funds and other large investors. You may experience losses if you need to sell your Shares at a time when the price of the underlying digital asset is lower than it was when you made your prior investment. Even if you are able to hold Shares for the long-term, your Shares may never generate a profit.
