Moventum introduces new products on ETF basis

Luxembourg, 7 January 2020 – Moventum introduces new portfolio strategies based on ETFs. The MOVEeasy portfolios featuring four different risk profiles are formed from Vanguard ETFs. “We are the first Luxembourg platform to cooperate with Vanguard”, highlighted Sabine Said, Executive Vice President of Moventum S.C.A. “The group is a pioneer in index investments offering excellent quality at favourable terms”. As a result, the MOVEeasy – inspired by Vanguard funds account models can be offered at attractive prices. “This gives advisors a product that offers Moventum quality at a very favourable cost-benefit ratio”, outlined Said. “The decision to partner with Vanguard is not only based on the fact that Vanguard offers some of the most affordable products on the market”. The Vanguard Group’s cooperative organisation is also a strong argument, as it allows the company to act entirely in its clients’ interests. The MOVEeasy – inspired by Vanguard funds portfolios are passive investments that invest in stock and bond indices worldwide through Vanguard’s listed mutual funds. Four portfolio proposals with different risk/reward weightings, ranging from defensive to growth-oriented, are offered. “The MOVEeasy portfolios represent the first step in this process. Jointly with Vanguard we will also offer regular knowledge transfer through training, seminars and webinars to provide advisors with the tools that actually add value to their clients”, added Said. “Our ETFs offer investors transparent access to widely diversified capital market indices at very low cost. This makes them particularly suitable for long-term capital investment and pension provision. We are therefore all the more pleased to be working with Moventum to make our products available to even more investors”, said Markus Weis, Deputy Head of Vanguard in Germany and Austria.

The regional breakdown of equity-linked investments is based on the share of the respective region in global market capitalisation. “At the same time, however, we want to focus on the home region, so that European investments are slightly overweighted compared to other regions”, explained Said. On the bond side, globally diversified and regionally concentrated ETFs are used, with the main focus on investments in eurozone bonds.
