SG Listed Structured Products
Since their launch on the London Stock Exchange in 2005, Listed Structured Products have become popular and flexible investment tools for UK wealth managers and brokers.
In there simplest form, they offer ETF like access to underlyings that may be otherwise difficult or expensive to trade, such as commodities, emerging markets or property indices. The more structured products, such as Accelerators, provide enhanced upside participation with no worse than market risk. In addition they can reduce other risks, such as eliminating currency risk for non UK investments, or provide an element of capital protection in case of market falls.
Another range of products are designed for Income seeking investors. These can offer high annual (or semi-annual or quarterly) coupon payments in return for giving away upside market participation.
All Listed Structured Products enjoy the benefits of being traded directly on the London Stock Exchange. These include:
Transparency: Live, two-way prices are maintained throughout the trading day
Ease of trade: Products trade and settle via CREST as with UK equity
Liquidity: Trades of £5m+ can be executed at prevailing market prices
Flexibility: Min trade size of £1,000 makes products highly accessible

In addition to the existing range of SG listed products, bespoke products, with characteristics defined by the wealth manager can be issued for a minimum investment of £2m, with a turnaround as short as 48 hours. For some products, distribution fees can be paid to third parties. Contact the SG sales team on 0800 328 1199 or email listedproducts@sgcib.com for details.
