New spot index - very attractive trading opportunity

We have created a new portfolio of spot indices to give our clients new investment space. Spot index trading offers investors three major advantages over trading individual securities and commodities:

Spot indexes cover all economic sectors, freeing investors from the need to research new companies.

Since no individual stock influences the movement of the entire index, price movements are generally expected to be relatively small.

· Traders can buy the current value of the underlying index with a lower spread and no delivery day.

In essence, traders do not have to incur the time cost of studying a series of rising stocks to form an index. The introduction of spot indices and the current availability of index futures gives clients the flexibility to choose their preferred trading method, enabling them to pursue trading opportunities that fit their individual investment strategies.

Commenting on the launch, Thomas Tsaloupis, Head of Risk Management at Eason, said: "We are excited to now offer our clients a wider choice of indices. These new spot indices are ideal for traders with short - or long-term prospects, as they offer smaller spreads than index futures and are not subject to any expiration date. Our goal is to constantly innovate to provide our customers with the best services, products and platforms, and the launch of the Spot Index is an example of this."

We are committed to providing our clients with a variety of options that suit their trading strategies, as well as the autonomy to balance investment, exposure and risk without incurring excessive costs.
