The Constructor, the web-application on Leonteq’s platform (By Leonteq)
Leonteq is one of the leading platforms for investment products in Switzerland, with currently more than 2’000 listed products. The company continuously improves its infrastructure in order to increase the variety and transparency in the structured products market for all investors. To come closer to reaching this goal and to meet client demand for ever more individual solutions Leonteq Securities started offering the first versions of Constructor since the spring of 2008. The Constructor is primarily designed for institutional clients, such as full service banks and private banks, asset managers, insurance companies and pension funds.
The Constructor is a web-based application that enables real-time structuring, calculation and launch of structured products on around 2’000 underlyings. It calculates tradable prices, all in real-time and based on Leonteq market data. Traded products prices are published on Bloomberg, Reuters, Telekurs as well as on the Leonteq webpage. Leonteq is constantly looking to redefine people’s investment experience through our leading and holistic platform. Since one year now, the Underlying Optimizer has been assisting professionals in their product discovery. By computing all combinations for a given universe of investment, the tool helps meeting yield target expectations. Developed in house by Leonteq, the Underlying Optimizer is a dedicated algorithm using a mix of Monte Carlo and machine- learning techniques. Calculating a large number of pricing variations in a short amount of time, the tool will extract the 30 highest yielding combinations within seconds and every proposed basket can be viewed directly in the pricing form with live prices.
Your custom & optimized product is now ready to be traded! Available in Switzerland, HK and Singapore and in some European Markets.
How to choose your underlying universe? You could rely on recommendation list or analyst research, but what if you could be able to choose yourself? What if a tool would be able to sort and filter stocks out of a huge universe? This is what our Equity Screener is offering. Based on internal and external data, the Equity Screener is displaying all available stocks on our platform corresponding to your own qualitative and quantitative criteria. The Leonteq Trends gives you an overview of what stock, product or other important parameter is chosen currently on the Leonteq Platform. Even cyclical and non-cyclical trends can be now easily captured through a timescale selection. Professionals need to know what their peers do and with above 1 million pricing per year, the data is reflected with high accuracy.
