PRESS RELEASE – C8 Announces new Cirdan Certificate C8 Multi-Asset Global Opportunities

London, 21 March 2022 – C8, the pioneering fintech platform that offers investors the ability to use direct indexing across all liquid asset classes and investment styles, today announces that Cirdan Capital has issued an Actively Managed Certificate (AMC), C8 Multi-Asset Global Opportunities
(GMAO), based on C8’s Diversified Risk Premia Index.

The certificate’s robustness and long-term continuity are maintained through diversification and the tactical allocation of capital into selected constituent portfolios. The index targets a Sharpe ratio of over 2. The certificate is available to both retail and accredited investors.
The product is made up of five uncorrelated constituent portfolios, active on commodities, rates, equity index futures, FX and US cash equities. These portfolios are diversified by investment style and theme, covering alternative risk-premia, equity risk-premia, ESG, macro and some technical aspects of price action.

Mattias Eriksson, Co-founder and CEO, C8 Technologies said: “In times of volatility and uncertainty, we recognise the need for portfolios with little correlation to traditional equity and bond products. We’re seeing increased demand for diversified risk premia products in response to the current, volatile global markets, driven by inflation concerns and geopolitical uncertainty.  C8’s GMAO is a portfolio of portfolios that carefully manages the risk allocation to each underlying portfolio, making it robust and ensuring its longevity. The C8 GMAO was built using the indices and innovative tools available on our C8 platform, then issued as a certificate by Cirdan Capital.”

The certificate is listed on the Frankfurt and Milan stock exchanges from today.

Thoughts From The Divide: The Moon

BY JON WEBB
If the Fed can “only know” the neutral rate (and hence whether policy is restrictive) “by its works”… there may be reason to think that the music is still playing. Whether it’s the price surges of misspelled celebrity memecoins ICOs such as “Joram Poowel” (a coin based on Elizabeth Warren was the “Top gainer” at the time of writing), the return of the Manufacturing PMI to positive territory “for the first time in 17 months”, or the simple good old fashioned break out of gold to all-time highs (sympathy to all mining stock bros, miners have failed to attract the same level of enthusiasm), the “restrictive” territory being bandied about seems less of a place of economic pain, and more one of milk and honey.

Thoughts From the Divide: The (Golden) Path

BY JON WEBB
While the road to hell is paved with good intentions, it appears that the “golden path” to a soft landing (which by way of reminder is a “triumph of hope over experience”, if you ask Mr. Summers) is paved with rate cuts. In an interview earlier this week, the Chicago Fed president Austan Goolsbee cast another vote in favor of “adjustment cuts”, saying that “You risk the golden path if you are going to be as restrictive as we are now”. Meanwhile, Jerome Powell was quick to assure the audience during his latest interview that “today I am not going to be sending any signals, one way or the other on any particular meeting” as far as rate cuts are concerned. However, that did not prevent the Chair from referring to ol’ reliable of monetary policy, “long and variable lags”, to explain why, “if you wait until inflation gets all the way down to 2%, you’ve probably waited too long”.
