Undividend Attention

Dividend derivatives

Trade the dividends of single stocks or complete stock indexes

Eurex pioneered in the exchange traded dividends space when we introduced our EURO STOXX 50® Index Dividend Futures. The futures enabled investors to trade the separated dividend stream on a standalone basis as a listed product.

Since then, we have continuously expanded our product portfolio. First with index-based contracts and then with contracts on single stocks. We now offer dividend futures on more than 80 of the largest Eurozone and pan-European companies.

Key Benefits of Single Stock Dividend Futures

  • Take pure dividend exposure by avoiding the underlying risk
  • Precisely hedge dividend exposure down to a corporate level
  • More diversification opportunities
  • New ways to hedge dividend exposure from structured products and derivatives
  • Fundamental and technical trades between single stock dividends and the index equivalent

Key Benefits of Sector Index Dividend Futures

  • Ability to fine-tune pricing
  • Execute fundamental and technical trades between sector dividends and the index equivalent
  • Hedging dividend exposure down to a sector level allows for precise investing based on earnings fundamentals in specific industries
  • More diversification opportunities through an extended product range
  • Take pure dividend exposure by avoiding the underlying equity risk and have the ability to structure individual sector baskets versus index dividend trades
  • New ways to hedge dividend exposure from structured products and derivatives
