The risklab Commodity 4 Seasons^TM Long Short Index (C4S Long Short Index) strategy provides the investor a long/short exposure to the commodity market by exploiting performance differentials between the commodity subsectors energy, precious metals, industrial metals, and agriculture in different periods.The fully rules-based C4S Long Short strategy derives long and short allocations of the commodity subsectors by following a momentum driven strategy that includes a risk management component. Its implementation is designed to avoid negative roll returns. Any remaining share of the index is invested into USD denominated money market instruments and serves as collateral for the derivative based implementation.

05.09.09 | Launch of first risklab Index:
The risklab Variance Premium Trading (VPT) Index^TM systematically sells variance swaps on EuroStoxx50 and S&P500 to provide exposure to the differential between (forward looking) implied equity index volatility and subsequently realized volatility. The fully rules-based VPT investment strategy is designed to generate positive performance during periods where implied volatility levels are greater than their subsequently realized levels. It is motivated by the historical observation that implied volatility tends to overestimate future realized volatility, resulting in a negative risk premium of volatility or variance, respectively. The collateral of the index is invested into EUR denominated money market instruments.
