Because volatility ETNs are part of the smart β family of funds, we include a selection of funds, differentiated by the underlying Futures, short - or mid-term and monthly or quaterly contracts

Though none of the assets in any of our listings should be understood as investment recommendations taken at face value, this is markedly so with volatility ETNs, (imperfect) trackers of the VIX volatility index and not buy-and-hold portfolio assets

To view the short-term tracking features of the theme - and its constituents - select a one-month time frame on the toolbar

Our ETF and ETN US smart-β themes present a wide range of funds – in terms of market coverage, size and style. We hope to achieve a fair coverage of funds in each category, which is a work in progress

We do not receive any commission or other form of compensation from the providers included in our 'Funds' presentation
