  • IOSCO Statement On Online Harm

    Date 15/12/2023

    Background

    Online harm1 can take many forms, encompassing, for example, the inappropriate online promotion of risky investments, misleading statements made in advertisements or social media content, and fraudulent and illegal online activity or other investment scams, including those involving digital assets. While the misconduct patterns might be familiar, the ease of such online misconduct and the borderless nature of the online environment present new and growing challenges as novel forms of crypto-asset or technology-based fraud are increasing. The growing sophistication in the application of artificial intelligence (AI) to all facets of society has the dual potential of magnifying the scale and impact of harmful online activities and providing new and powerful ways for regulators to detect, deter and disrupt such activities.

  • Solactive Partners For The First Time With KB Securities On Two ETNs Tracking Solactive Indices

    Date 15/12/2023

    Japan is a global leader in the robotics industry, with several top companies headquartered in the country. In 2022, over 280,000 industrial robots were produced in Japan, with a total production value exceeding 1.02 trillion JPY. This success is underscored by the robust growth experienced by the Japanese machinery sector since 2014, driven by the nation’s imperative for automation in response to its aging society. The correspondingly decreasing workforce projections lead to anticipation of increased demand for automated systems and advanced industrial machinery and equipment. The country’s outlook remains positive on the consumer front following a solid post-pandemic recovery3. Given the growth opportunities within the Japanese market, Solactive is pleased to announce a new partnership with KB Securities, listing two ETNs, the KB Japan Robotics TOP 10 ETN and the KB Japan Consumer TOP 10 ETN, tracking the Solactive Japan Robotics & Machinery Index and the Solactive Japan Consumer Index.
