the ETPs (based on the Swiss definition, those comprise ETCs<br />
and ETNs) introduced on the SIX Swiss <strong>Exchange</strong> in 2010 have<br />
— up to now — played a very minor role. Only this year was that<br />
drought broken. The segment is significantly smaller compared<br />
with ETFs, ETCs and COSIs, and currently has slightly more<br />
than 60 products. Last but not least, the terms ETI and ETV<br />
come up again and again. They are made up of the somewhat<br />
"The most obvious difference between<br />
ETPs and COSI products lies in the way<br />
that security is provided."<br />
clumsy general terms exchange traded instruments and exchange<br />
traded vehicles. With this, our trip through the thicket<br />
of concepts has come to an end. However, new terms can<br />
always be right around the corner. The creativity of financial<br />
product developers and issuers is great, as we know. <br />
