Credit Suisse launches multi-factor index strategy

Credit Suisse has launched the CSIF (Lux) Equity EURO STOXX Multi Premia, a multi-factor Ucits-compliant index fund.  The methodology was developed by Finreon, a spin-off from the University of St. Gallen, and takes into account procyclical factors, countercyclical factors and defensive factors. It replicates the Euro Stoxx Multi Premia Index.
