The focus is on companies in the technology, financial and renewable energy sectors that could benefit from trends such as digitalization, urbanization and a growing middle class.

Momentum

Momentum strategies focus on stocks that have performed above average over a given period. The assumption is that these rising stocks carry a momentum that's likely to continue for a certain time. Such a strategy, based on a scientific principle and implemented with a disciplined approach, is now available to Volt clients.

US Tech Leaders

This investment theme tracks the Nasdaq-100 Index, which is composed of the 100 largest companies on the Nasdaq stock exchange. Gain access to the center of the technology world, where innovation-driven companies are shaping the future in markets such as artificial intelligence, cloud computing and e-commerce.

This theme invests in US companies with the goal of outperforming the S&P 500. It incorporates sustainability criteria and focuses on selecting companies with strong growth potential. The product offers broad diversification. It is suitable for investors seeking long-term exposure to the US market with a focus on sustainability.

US-Elections 2024

The U.S. elections set the tone for the financial markets both in the run-up to the elections and in the months and often years afterwards. With the "US Elections 2024" theme, you have the opportunity to position yourself on the US markets with your Volt portfolio.

CleanTech

Our environment is subject to ever-increasing stress factors. Fortunately, governments and companies alike are working on solutions: from clean energy to resource efficiency. With "Cleantech", you can participate in the success of companies driving this positive change through innovative technology.

Megatrends

Thematic investments are experiencing a worldwide boom. And the range of topics is wide: from the energy transition to cannabis. With the "VF II - Megatrends Fund", Vontobel Volt investors have the attractive opportunity to participate in 13 promising future themes based on megatrends in one fell swoop.

Smart Farming

What will we eat tomorrow? This is the question 9.8 billion people will be asking themselves in 2050. This growth in population will mean that food production will have to increase 70 percent. Smart farming can increase the world’s harvest by two thirds. We estimate that this market will grow 6 percent per year in the years ahead.

Disruptors

Airbnb, Uber, Amazon – these three disruptors have fundamentally changed established sectors. Innovative companies successfully meet changing consumer demands with technological advantages and service offers, as well as tapping into new markets and target groups.

NextGen Brands

Strong brands are intangible assets through which a company can achieve a dominant market position and above-average returns. Competitors can hardly copy brands, and, once established, brands are associated with relatively low costs. Companies that have a strong brand often outperform the broad market.

Smart Healthcare

The Western population is becoming increasingly older. This is causing bellyaches for governments and posing enormous challenges for the healthcare sector. The pharmaceutical industry has a key role to play here. With future blockbusters in drugs and vaccinations as well as digital solutions, it has a lot of innovative power in store. This creates opportunities for investors.

Quality Achievers

There are companies that simply and consistently do a good job of making profits and having a solid balance sheet for decades. Those quality companies are characterized by a consistent business model displaying a clear focus and sustainable growth potential, and remain in demand even during crises.

Global Digitalization

There is hardly an area of life that is not permeated by the digital world. E-commerce, cloud computing and artificial intelligence play an important role in the digital ecosystem. As technology advances, new possibilities and opportunities are constantly opening up.

Swiss Equities

The Swiss equity market offers a wide selection of reliably managed companies operating in promising sectors. The local stock market reflects the innovative and globally networked Swiss economy.

Fintech

Fintech companies use technology-based systems to provide financial services that offer their customers benefits such as lower costs, greater efficiency, transparency, and independence.

Robotics

The very first industrial robots saw the neon light of the factories 20 years ago. A lot has happened since then. Today, sophisticated sensors and advances in software technology are allowing us to venture into new spheres. Robots are gaining the ability to move in the real world, to react to unplanned events, and to engage in interactions. This marks the dawn of the real era of robotics and opens up exciting investment opportunities.

E-Sports and Gaming

E-Sports and Gaming are the big players in the entertainment industry and have overtaken the film and music industry. E-Sports professionals are celebrated as modern gladiators and could soon carry the Olympic torch. And the potential is huge: With their smartphones, almost 4 billion people carry a gaming device with them.

Aqua

Water is an irreplaceable commodity and supplies are limited. Although the oceans are full of it, only one in a thousand liters is drinkable. These facts collide with the increasing water consumption of mankind. Innovative solutions for infrastructure, water services and water efficiency are needed.

Cloud Computing

Whether it’s banks looking to develop a fintech app, grocers setting up e-commerce platforms, or car manufacturers automating their production lines, when it comes to hardware and software, more and more companies are turning to a cloud solution. In other words, they simply rent computing power, storage space and the applications they need online. This is not only more efficient than purchasing and operating their own IT infrastructure, but also allows them to scale the resources they use at short notice. Welcome to the era of cloud computing.

Opportunities

Through "Opportunities" you invest in individual securities which, in Vontobel's opinion, have upside potential due to the current market situation.

Energy Revolution

The energy revolution has begun. In the future, an increasing number of investments will flow into environmentally friendly energy sources.  “Ener” focuses on companies that are one step ahead of the competition in the field of energy production and efficiency.

Technological change

Whether climate change, aging societies, or population growth, innovation is key to addressing major challenges. Even in less crucial areas, such as streaming services and payment service providers, technology is the measure of progress. Participate in technological change with these themes.

Sustainable value creation

As awareness of resource scarcity and climate change increases, sustainable value creation is becoming more and more important. For companies, this means more than just cultivating an image. Companies without a sustainable strategy are already being punished on the stock exchange. Future markets are thus likely to be dominated by those companies that achieve their goals in a sustainable manner. Participate in sustainable value creation with these themes.

Multipolar world

With the rapid rise of China, the United States is getting competition as a world power. India’s economic ambitions are also upsetting global political structures. For global markets, this means one thing above all: motion. Investors see the greatest potential in emerging markets and global connectivity. Participate in the shifts in our multipolar world with the following themes.

Demographics & urbanization

More and more people are living in cities. In addition, our society is aging. While urbanization demands ever new solutions for infrastructure and supply, demographic change requires a smarter and more efficient healthcare system. At the other end of the demographic spectrum, the consumption behavior of Gen-Z’s digital natives is forcing brands to rethink. Participate in demographic change and urbanization with these topics.
