Selling Strategy Indices
These indices have been sold under the following premises which need not be always true,
1. They offer a new asset class that is uncorrelated to conventional asset classes such as equities, bonds and commodities.
2. Compared to hedgefunds and mutual funds, these strategies are very transparent and the client can buy them only if they like the idea behind the strategy.
3. Some types of strategies also benefit from accounting reasons, for instance, in Germany, Notes linked to interest rates can be issued in the Schuldshein format. This enables interest rate linked strategies to be issued as Schuldsheins.

Famous quotes containing the words selling and/or strategy:
“It has become a certainty now that if you will only advertise sufficiently you may make a fortune by selling anything.”
—Anthony Trollope (1815–1882)
“... the generation of the 20’s was truly secular in that it still knew its theology and its varieties of religious experience. We are post-secular, inventing new faiths, without any sense of organizing truths. The truths we accept are so multiple that honesty becomes little more than a strategy by which you manage your tendencies toward duplicity.”
—Ann Douglas (b. 1942)
