Boost Welcomes UK Treasury Review of the Spread Betting Tax Loophole whilst Spread Betting Market Shrinks by 8% in Stark Contrast to a 15% Global Growth of the Short and Leverage ETP Market

February 14, 2014--BOOST welcomes Treasury review of spread betting tax loophole
BOOST believes spread betting should be subject to tax on gains and off settable for losses which is the case for similar investment products
BOOST believes such a move will position short and leverage Exchange Traded Products (ETPs)favourably when compared to spread betting and Contracts For Differences (CFDs)


Spread betting market shrinks by 8% in 2013 compared to 52% increase in trading volumes of short and leveraged ETPs

BOOST ETP, Europe's award winning, specialist Short and Leverage (S&L) Exchange-Traded Product (ETP) provider, welcomed the recent announcement from Treasury Spokesman, Lord Newby, who commented that ministers "ought to look" at the apparent "loophole" that allows spread betters to avoid income and capital gains tax.

Global AUM for Short & Leveraged ETPs Hits $56bn despite Souring Sentiment on Risk Assets

February 13, 2014-The AUM of short & leveraged (S&L) ETPs reached a record of $56 billion at the end of January, up $0.9 billion (or 1.7%) from December, as investors continue to increase their usage of S&L ETPs globally

Inflows of $331 million into short US equity ETPs, the largest global inflow of such equity ETPs in January, combined with outflows of $150 million from long US equity ETPs suggests a bearish sentiment taking hold in US equities
S&L investors bought $162 million of short European equity ETPs, while they also sold $177 million of long European equity ETPs ($339m net short), reversing the moderate upbeat sentiment in European equity markets in December 2013
S&L investors shifted bullish positioning to Japan, which has enjoyed the strongest inflows in S&L equity ETPs of $1.2 billion
Inflows into short US Treasury ETPs have slowed from $1.2 billion in December to $0.4 billion in January 2014

ESMA consults on Guidelines for issuers performance measures

February 13, 2014--The European Securities and Markets Authority (ESMA) has launched a consultation on Guidelines on Alternative Performance Measures (APMs).

The aim of the guidelines is to encourage European issuers to publish transparent, unbiased and comparable information on their financial performance in order to provide users with a better understanding of their performance. Some examples of APMs include EBIT (Earnings Before Interest & Tax), EBITDA (Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortisation), free cash flow, underlying profit or net-debt.

The Consultation Paper follows on from ESMA's decision to review and replace the 2005 CESR Recommendation on APMs with Guidelines under Article 16 of the ESMA Regulation to tackle concerns about APMs used by issuers. Those relate mainly to APMs being used in such a manner as to present a confusing or optimistic picture of their performance by removing certain negative aspects, or even where this is not the case, APMs can be misleading if they are inconsistently calculated or presented.
