Investors in Switzerland can now learn about how structured financial products react in various market scenarios in an online gaming format.
The Swiss Structured Products Association has launched an online gaming format for learning about structured financial products called SSPA Lab
that has been developed in collaboration with the University of Zurich, the association said in a press release Friday.
SSPA said the most common products could be created and tested in various bullish and bearish scenarios using SSPA Lab.
Risk Awareness
The aim of SSPA Lab was to help existing and potential investors to expand their understanding of structured products in a playful way and to heighten their risk awareness.
«The gaming approach invites experimentation and trial and error, with the aim of helping more investors make balanced and informed decisions about their investments in structured products,» SSPA Chairman Markus Pfister said.
