This service provides the management of a highly diversified portfolio, minimising specific risk exposure. Cornèr Bank operates independently, selecting the best funds in the respective categories, thus offering high-quality portfolio management. The constant aim is to seek the most advantageous investment opportunities. Various management profiles are offered, even for modest assets, with the possibility of investing in the reference currency, or in a currency out of a specific selection, according to the Client’s requirements.
Dynamic Floor Management mandate
This is a method of increasing Clients’ assets when markets rise, and protecting them when markets fall.
Basically, Dynamic Floor Management mandate works via a lower limit of capital for downside protection (the «floor») and a «multiplier» for upside capture, achieved by increasing exposure to stock market investments. The Client sets these parameters, selecting from a range of models offered by Cornèr Bank.
