The Sponsored Funds Segment enables investors to buy and sell traditional investment funds at the latest prices while enjoying all the benefits of regulated and monitored trading. SIX Swiss Exchange and Bank Julius Baer pioneered the segment in 2013 on the SIX Swiss Exchange platform – one of the most technically advanced in the world. Since 2023, investors can now also trade investment funds via BX Swiss – enabling all investor groups to buy and sell funds at the latest prices in a transparent and fully automated manner.

Sponsored Funds can be bought or sold on the stock exchange at the push of a button – just like shares or other financial instruments. Investors benefit from immediate order execution and can always react to the latest market changes.

Executing orders for investment funds in the traditional manner via the primary market (subscription and redemption of units at net asset value = NAV) always involves delays due to the principle of forward pricing. The NAV price calculation takes place hours or days after the order to place the subscriptions and redemptions is accepted. This means that the investor only learns the execution price after the fact – one or two days later – and bears the market risk from the time the order is entered until it is executed.

The ability to trade at any time and the pre-trade transparency of the execution price are therefore crucial advantages when it comes to processing orders for investment funds. In addition, investors can use the order types At Market, Price Limit, Stop-Loss or Stop-Limit and thus have full control over execution.

Currently, more than 700 investment funds can be traded on SIX Swiss Exchange and more than 50 investment funds on BX Swiss in their Sponsored Funds segments. The potential to increase the number of products and the trading volume is far from exhausted. Demand is likely to increase in the future for the Sponsored Funds segments due to the fact that they combine both a highly automated processing chain for traditional investment funds and all the advantages of regulated exchange trading.

Investment funds on the stock markets at the push of a button

Market makers provide or ‘sponsor’ the liquidity, hence the name Sponsored Funds – and are responsible for ensuring that binding prices are constantly available. SIX Swiss Exchange and BX Swiss continuously monitor trading to ensure that the buy and sell prices are in line with the market. This guarantees equal treatment of all market participants and provides the best possible protection for investors.

Automated, flexible and transparent

In the case of trades made via the stock exchange, as with ETF trading, the bid-ask spread is much less important than the potential market volatility. That’s another reason why transparent, standardised and fully automated trading of investment funds via the stock exchange offers significant benefits to all types of investors – from private clients to portfolio managers, institutional investors and independent asset managers.

 

 

Trade an investment fund via the stock exchange? 

When investors are submitting an order via their principal bank, it has to be placed as a buy/sell order on the exchange (SIX Swiss Exchange or BX Swiss). The order is placed by the relationship manager or via e-banking in the customary manner.

The latest buy and sell prices are available directly on the following exchanges during normal trading hours:

    Access to data under the section "Structured Products" is designated exclusively for visitors to the site with domicile in Switzerland. Access to the section "Structured Products" is prohibited for visitors to the site from other countries, and these users must exit the website.

    Data under the section "Structured Products" serve as information only and constitute neither a solicitation nor invitation of an offer. Any buy or sell offer is provided only with the complete documentation, which particularly points out the risks associated with these financial products and can be obtained from Bank Julius Baer & Co.

Investors are urged to read this documentation carefully since they provide the conditions under which an investor can invest in the product. Please note that conversations conducted on our trading telephone can be recorded. Structured products do not represent participation in a collective investment and are thus not subject to supervisory authority by the Swiss Financial Market Supervisory Authority (FINMA). Investors are therefore not protected under the Swiss Federal Act on Collective Capital Investments (CCIA) and are thus exposed to issuer risk.
