TH THE EQUITY TY IN INSURANCE PRE REMIUM

▪ The fund invests in a long dated, low strike covered put strategy

▪ Equity Linked Defined Return Investments offer an enhanced return ▪ The payoff and capital value of each investment is subject to the performance of underlying markets ▪ Investors are selling covered puts and so underwriting equity market risk

▪ The “price” of equity put options exceeds the “value” ▪ The fund earns the Equity Insurance Premium through selling covered puts ▪ The Equity Insurance Premium is a persistent source of returns based on three factors

▪ Behavioral Factors; investors loss aversion means that they are prepared to pay to avoid losses ▪ Structural Factors; regulations limit the risks that banks, insurance companies and pension schemes can take, so they are required to insure against losses ▪ Economic Factors; greater reliance on personal savings increases the demand for equity protection

▪ Multiple studies confirm the attractive returns from underwriting equity market risk.

money put options

  • Price is the risk neutral price calculated using market

parameters

between the risk-neutral forward and the “forecast” value

  • Forecast value is the consensus estimate of total returns

PROGRESSIVE RIS RISK AT MATURITY VS TRA RADITIONAL APPROACHES

Levendi Investment Management Limited is an appointed representative of Thornbridge Investment Management LLP which is authorised and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority.

FINAL VALUE AT MATURITY (%) Final Index Level (%) Levendi Fund Autocall Traditional Autocalls (%) 90 164 164 80 164 164 70 164 164 60 164 164 50 100 100 49 96 49 48 92 48 45 80 45 40 60 40 35 40 35 30 20 30 25 25

Traditional autcalls have a large discontinuity if the Capital at Risk Barrier is breached at maturity. In the example here, if the index closes below the Barrier level, initial capital will be reduced at a rate of 1% for every 1% the closing level of the index is BELOW ITS INITIAL START LEVEL. The Levendi progressive risk at maturity offers a smooth erosion of capital in the event that an index closes below the Capital Threshold Level. The table and chart below compares the Levendi approach to final capital redemption to traditional autocalls.

Final Trigger Level – 60% Levendi Capital Threshold Level – 50%, from which capital is eroded And 50% Capital at Risk Barrier used by traditional Autocall/Kickout products

Levendi Investment Management Limited is an appointed representative of Thornbridge Investment Management LLP which is authorised and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority.

Fund volatility can be approximated as Market Volatility x Exposure In normal market conditions exposure is expected to be between 4% and 6% When markets fall, volatility tends to increase and exposure will rise so the volatility of the fund will rise to be too high
