You Built a Brilliant Strategy. So Why Is It Still Sitting on the Shelf?

Asset managers spend months (sometimes years) designing alpha-generating strategies. But when it comes to launch, the hurdles pile up:

  • Setting up a fund takes 12–18 months on average.

  • Costs can easily exceed €250,000 before the first investor comes on board.

  • Distribution across borders requires regulatory approvals and infrastructure few boutiques have.

Result? Brilliant strategies remain stuck in slide decks instead of live markets.

That’s where iMaps steps in:

  • Exchange listing in about 30 days: Your strategy becomes a listed Exchange Traded Instrument (ETI) on Stuttgart’s EUWAX, Europe’s largest marketplace for structured products (with an estimated 1.7 to 1.9 million products listed).

  • Global investor access: Tradable via @Interactive Brokers, @Baader Bank and other major platforms, just like a stock or ETF.

  • Investor protection: Each ETI is linked to a segregated portfolio, with assets pledged to an independent trustee for the sole benefit of #investors.

  • Efficient and scalable: From niche strategies to larger mandates, the structure works without the heavy setup of a traditional fund.

iMaps turns investment ideas into listed, investable products without the long wait, heavy costs, or regulatory dead ends.

From strategy to exchange in a month. That’s how alpha moves off the shelf and into the market.
