Designed to provide exposure and risk management within a crypto asset class
MV Index Solutions GmbH (MVIS®) and Wavebridge announced the launch of the MVIS-Wavebridge Bitcoin Plus Altcoins Momentum Index.
“As digital assets move mainstream, the need for smart investment strategies will grow. This index partnership with MVIS showcases the crypto and quant capabilities of Wavebridge”
The MVIS-Wavebridge Bitcoin Plus Altcoins Momentum Index (ticker: MWBPM) tracks the financial performance of an index composed of Bitcoin and other altcoins weighted by momentum factor. The index is constructed as a convex combination based on past performances of two main components: Bitcoin and a basket of non-Bitcoin crypto assets (“Altcoins”). The objective of the index is to provide exposure to both Bitcoin and selective altcoins using Wavebridge’s proprietary quant model in an attempt to provide superior returns through optimal allocations. This model also provides index-based access to factors that historically have driven a significant part of digital asset risk and return.
