Key features and benefits

The opportunity to borrow up to 121% of the investment amount – You can borrow to invest in Credit Suisse Performance Plus Series. (100% Class A&B, 121% Class C)

Unlock existing cash locked CPPI investments – Class C units allow investors the opportunity to borrow an additional 21% of the investment amount that can be used to pay back penalties in existing cash locked CPPI structures.

Volatility Risk Reduction Strategy – During periods of positive returns, volatility tends to be low
and stable, during periods of negative returns, volatility tends to be high as investors shy away from risk. Credit Suisse’s volatility overlay reduces and increases exposure to the underlying investments (between 25% and 150%) as volatility falls and rises, potentially enhancing returns and reducing downside risk.
