STOXX and RiskFirst to launch LDI indices

April 19, 2018--STOXX Ltd., the operator of Deutsche Börse Group's index business and a global provider of innovative and tradable index concepts, announced today the launch of the new iSTOXX RiskFirst LDI index family. This new offering has been jointly developed with RiskFirst, the UK's leading provider of risk analytics and reporting solutions to the defined benefit pensions market.

STOXX will calculate a range of indices based on 12 profiles, capturing member type, duration, type of indexation (pre- and post-retirement), interest rate and inflation sensitivity and tax-free cash component of typical UK pension schemes. The indices combine STOXX's real-time fixed-income index calculation capabilities with a unique set of data provided by RiskFirst.

Matthew Seymour, CEO of RiskFirst, commented: "The set of indices we have developed in partnership with STOXX are a major leap forward, providing improved governance and increased accuracy in a cost-efficient solution. PFaroe is rapidly becoming an industry standard for the modelling of pension plans and therefore offers us unique insight into the behaviour of pension plan cash flow profiles at a very granular level. When combined with STOXX's extensive experience in designing innovative and objective investment benchmarks, the result is a set of indices that deliver great value to UK pension plans."

VIX index and products: the AMF publishes a study on the strong volatility observed on the markets in early February 2018

April 19, 2018--Given the spike in volatility perceived by investors in early February, the AMF is publishing an analysis of the main products concerned and their behaviour during this episode. Broadly speaking, the extent of investment strategies based on volatility calls for a certain vigilance.

Following the publication on February 2 of an economic statistic, triggering fears of a rise in interest rates in the United States, the markets experienced a strong increase in volatility. The S&P 500 index fell 4.2% on February 5. The VIX index, which measures the implied volatility of S&P 500 index options, rose to 50 points in a few days, far from its 10 to 15 points average as observed in the previous months. The index has since returned to lower levels.
