Frequently Asked Questions

This section provides answers to frequently asked questions, helping users to find the information they need quickly and easily.

What is an AMC?

A Swiss AMC (Actively Managed Certificate) is a financial certificate issued by a bank that tracks an actively managed strategy or portfolio. It is far more flexible and quicker to set up than a traditional fund; it enables international investors to gain access to selected energy and industrial projects through an efficient, institutional approach.

What is securitisation?

Securitisation is a financial transaction in which future cash flows are converted into securities (bond) available for sale to investors.

What is an SPV?

An SPV (Special Purpose Vehicle) is a company set up specifically for a particular purpose. Each project has its own SPV, which offers numerous advantages: risk isolation, operational transparency and efficient cash flow management.

Why Switzerland?

This is because Switzerland excels in private banking and international finance, and also boasts a highly specialised infrastructure in this sector, built up over many years of experience.

Why aren’t SPVs subject to bankruptcy?
The SPVs used in securitisation transactions are structured to be ‘bankruptcy-remote’, meaning they are insulated from the risk of insolvency of the originator or sponsor.

Indeed, the Bank of Italy’s regulation also defines a special purpose vehicle as an entity ‘insulated from the risk of bankruptcy or any other form of insolvency that might affect the transferor’, as can be seen in the section highlighted opposite.
