- The underlying will not reach or go below a certain level (knock-in level/barrier) during the term
Characteristics
- Unlimited participation in the performance of the underlying.
- The minimum repayment corresponds to the bonus level (strike price) if the price of the underlying has never touched or fallen below the knock-in level.
- The risk buffer means that repayment of the bonus level is also guaranteed if the performance of the underlying is slightly negative.
- Several underlyings (worst of) permit a higher bonus payment or a lower barrier in exchange for greater risk.
- The product involves less risk than a direct investment.
- The income accruing on the underlying is used for strategy purposes.
