Rietumu Bank’s fully owned subsidiary RB Asset Management offers a new investment product – capital-protected structured notes exposed to natural gas. It is the virtually risk-free instrument allowing customers to benefit from 7-12% return per annum given favourable market conditions.
Structured investment notes is a new product developed by specialists of RB Asset Management, which combines features of deposit and investment programs. Upon the note’s settlement, Rietumu Bank is obliged to pay back the entire initial investment amount along with a cumulative return to the customers dependent on the market situation.
The note’s return will depend on performance of its underlying asset throughout a year. If a price of the asset increases, the note will show return on investment. Starting from 2008, the price of natural gas increased significantly and then fell sharply – for around 69% from its peak. Considering the fact that this plunge has had no fundamental reasons and arisen as a result of market speculations, the price of natural gas is expected to grow during the following 12 months.
Therefore, this product perfectly suits risk-averse investors, who think that natural gas is undervalued and its price should rise.
Subscription to Commodity Bull Notes is held from 9 to 31 March 2009. The note’s duration – from 31 March 2009 to 31 March 2010. The minimum investment amount equals USD 100’000.
