Seeking Income with Index Options

Gareth Ryan
IUR Capital

With equity markets continuing to ebb and flow on concerns over a change in the interest rate environment, volatility has continued to dominate investor sentiment, particularly in risk assets. Investors can capitalise on higher volatility premium through the use of several option strategies that seek to harvest premium using either near-term weekly options or longer-term traditional monthlies.

Join Gareth Ryan, Founder & Managing Director at IUR Capital, as he discusses the evolution of index options with premium-harvesting option strategies including the credit spread strategy and iron butterfly. Gareth will look at how these defined-risk, defined-return strategies are implemented to an equity portfolio and look at how they can be used in bull, bear and sideways markets.

A Q&A session will take place at the end.
