The Autorite des Marches Financiers publishes a guide for investment management companies on the

May 21, 2013--With the aim of helping investment management companies fulfil their obligations under the European regulation on over-the-counter derivatives, central counterparties and trade repositories (EMIR), the AMF has published a guide explaining the implications of this new framework.

A key element in the drive to enhance financial stability and security, the EMIR European regulation applies to users of derivatives. Investment management companies are therefore subject to new requirements, including a central clearing obligation (i.e. by means of an authorised clearing house) for their transactions in sufficiently-standardised and liquid over-the-counter derivatives. For those over-the counter derivatives that are not cleared centrally, other techniques designed to reduce operational and counterparty risk must be implemented. Lastly, the regulation introduces a requirement to report transactions for all derivatives.

Boost Research-A golden short for the long run

May 20, 2013--Summary
Gold's fundamentals deteriorate: benign inflation, stock market rallies, resilient dollar and macro-stability undermine its price
High real price of gold is off by ~30% from 2011 peak. The directional downturn from the 1980 peak may suggest the bear market for gold has much further to go

Investors seeking to hedge against a fall in the gold price may consider a short leveraged gold position using the Boost Gold 3x Short Daily ETP (3GOS)

The bull case for gold may be fading fast: momentum rallies have been lacking fundamental support and have been short-lived. The macro backdrop, in a nutshell: a recovering US, a restructuring Europe and a rebalancing China as China moves away from exports to consumption. Disinflation, not inflation, is underpinning the trend in consumer prices, undermining the case for gold.

Boost Research-Macro Outlook-Equities as the new safe haven? Strengthening cash-flows amidst

May 15, 2013--Summary
Strong cash flows and company balance sheets give equities a potential safe haven status, with lower downside risk than bonds or commodities
Competitive dividend yields reflect a low growth environment and an overly risk averse corporate management style

Until extraordinary monetary stimulus unwinds, the relative high equity yield is expected to potentially offer investors better risk adjusted yields than bonds or gold
