Abstract:
In the global market in which many countries still struggle with the consequences of the financial crisis of 2008, many companies come to the conclusion that growth can be achieved through international marketing activities. This attitude poses big challenges to organization that want to enter the international arena, involving deciding which markets should be entered, how this should be done, through which marketing program and finally how to organize the marketing. International expansion poses risks as well as opportunities to businesses, and it is crucial for the organization to thoroughly evaluate the market in order to take a decision about the market entry strategy. Based on the case studies of Credit Suisse and UBS entering the Brazilian market, this thesis sought to study how Swiss banks entered the country and with what results. Based on an extensive literature review, the two cases have been presented and it was possible to demonstrate that great cultural difference and tight regulation suggest the entry through a merger or an acquisition.

Mestrado em Finanças
A crise dos créditos hipotecários de alto risco, que terá levado os investidores a perderem a sua confiança tanto nos bancos e no mercado como na economia norte-americana, trouxe consequências internacionais em todos os outros índices e mercados. Este projeto tem o objetivo estudar o impacto da crise num dos países mais desenvolvidos da Europa, o caso da Suíça - um país geralmente visto como neutro e quase imune a crises - em particular o estudo visa avaliar as mudanças presentes na bolsa. Assim, primeiramente a análise deste projeto foi dividida em dois períodos temporais de 1 de janeiro de 2001 a 31 de dezembro de 2008 e de 1 de janeiro de 2009 a 31 de dezembro de 2016. Posteriormente, o estudo foca-se em subperíodos mais curtos em torno da crise, com o intuito de analisar mais detalhadamente o seu impacto.
The subprime-crisis, which arguably led investors to lose their confidence in banks, in the market, and in the US economy, had international consequences in all indices and markets. In order to analyze the consequences of a crisis in one of the most developed countries of Europe, this project studies the case of Switzerland ? a country usually perceived as neutral and almost immune to crises - in particular it assesses the changes present in the Stock Market. The analysis is divided into two equal periods of time from January 1, 2001 to December 31, 2008 and from January 1, 2009 to December 31, 2016 firstly, and then the study focuses on shorter sub-periods around the crisis, to analyze the impact in more detail.

Abstract:
The research aim is to understand how the competitive intelligence (CI) process in large-scale Swiss telecom companies contributes to management decision-making. Studying CI activities of the Swiss large-scale telecom firms (Swisscom, Sunrise, Orange/Salt, Cablecom) in a dynamic European context offers useful insight into the critical challenges that service firms now face when developing intelligence in disruptive market contexts where aggressive competitive behaviour is evident. In considering CI theory, this study has reviewed perspectives drawn from research on the CI process, studies on knowledge management and work on systems thinking. In extending the predominant modular view of CI to include elements of systems thinking, this study has added to our academic understanding of CI at firm level. An Integrative CI Activities framework was developed that enables a more holistic perspective of CI to be adopted, taking account of operational, organisational and strategic perspectives. A diagram representing the range of CI analysis methodologies has also been generated, that differentiates between internal/external orientation and static/dynamic forms of CI analysis. Such frameworks can be used by CI researchers in other market contexts. The methodology for this study drew on a pragmatist philosophy, using a case study strategy that adopted mixed methods in data collection, including semi-structured depth interviews with top CI Analysts in each firm. Findings have shown differences in the scope of CI Activities that link to stages of CI development (developing, developed) and variation between headquarters-centred and firm-centred approaches to CI planning and implementation. The adoption of query based, flexible analysis approaches in firm-centred settings differ from more structured CI analysis techniques in headquarters-based firms. Evidence from this study suggests that networked communication, strong feedback mechanisms and the adoption of more flexible CI analyst roles link to more effective CI processes and to greater potential for direct CI contribution to decision-making. Key contributions emerge through the three lenses of analysis adopted (operational, organisational and strategic); in terms of operational CI processes, the study identifies a complex integrated system at work in firms that implement CI effectively. In studying the link between organisational structure and CI analysis, the study has mapped organisational support patterns and how they shape the CI process at firm level. With respect to the strategic lens, following a detailed worked study of predictive analysis in one case firm, findings have identified adaptiveness in CI design as essential to address disruptive market change. Managerial consideration include a need for a) greater flexibility in CI implementation at firm level to adapt to turbulent markets, b) acknowledgement of the importance of the CI analyst role further and c) more dynamic CI content to be generated by CI analysts.

Abstract:
In the past decades, real estate has turned into something more than just a home, it has become an investment. The interest to invest in the real estate market has increased from investors but also from private persons where the demand not only is to find a living but also perceived as an investment to make a profit or reinvest in the future.  The demand on the Swiss real estate market has increased from locals but also foreigners that want to invest in the stable and safe Swiss market. The high demand has increased the housing prices, which has raised even faster than the wages, and in turn, limit the possibilities to participate in the Swiss real estate market. It has made people less able to afford to buy a home, and many are forced to take from their pension funds to be able to pay the 20% of required deposit. This creates a risk for the future and puts not only the citizens but also the banks in large default risks since there does not exist an insurance if a price fall would occur on the Swiss market.  Many people mitigate the risks by diversification by investing in different assets in the derivative market. The market has seen a trend towards the technology development, which makes it possible to create more creative innovations at the derivative market. The increased interest in real estate and the accessibility of derivate products have led to a demand for real estate in derivatives.  This study investigates the possibilities to incorporate real estate within the derivative market, more specific within futures contracts. Futures contracts are standardized contracts between two parts that agree to buy/sell an asset at a future date and price. Real estate in futures is supposed to work in the same way, and to work as an insurance for possible price fall on the market since it can hedge the market by reducing price fluctuations, or as an alternative way to speculate within the real estate market to increase income. Real estate in futures could, in turn, allow a broader target group to participate in the real estate market since it would be a cheaper, easier and faster alternative to investing in than the physical real estate market.  The thesis confirms that there is a demand on the Swiss market for an alternative way to invest in real estate. However, the thesis discovers several difficulties with creating the product that should be managed. The thesis examining the subject together with the Swiss leader in online trading, the bank Swissquote. With their expertise in technology, Swissquote has an advantage when creating the product REF.
Under de senaste årtiondena har fastigheter blivit mer än bara ett hem, det har även blivit en investering. Intresset att investera i fastighetsmarknaden har ökat från investerare men även från privatpersoner där efterfrågan inte endast är att köpa en fastighet för att bo i, utan som även ska fungera som en investering för att möjliggöra en vinst eller återinvestera i framtiden. Efterfrågan på den schweiziska fastighetsmarknaden har ökat från lokalbefolkningen men även från utlänningar som vill investera i den stabila och säkra schweiziska marknaden. Den höga efterfrågan har ökat bostadspriserna mer än vad lönerna ökar, vilket minskar möjligheterna att delta i den schweiziska fastighetsmarknaden. Detta då människor inte har råd att köpa ett hem för endast sina löner, många är även tvungna att ta från sina pensionsfonder för att kunna betala handpenningen på 20%. Detta har skapat en risk för framtiden, och sätter inte bara medborgarna utan även bankerna i stora risker eftersom det inte finns någon försäkring mot ett prisfall på den schweiziska marknaden. Många mildrar riskerna genom diversifiering i olika tillgångar på derivatmarknaden. Teknologi trenden har gjort det möjligt att skapa mer kreativa innovationer på derivatmarknaden. Intresset för fastigheter och den ökade utbudet av derivatprodukter har lett till en efterfrågan på just fastigheter i derivatprodukter. Denna studie undersöker möjligheterna att införa fastigheter inom derivatmarknaden, mer specifikt inom futures. Futures kontrakt är standardiserade kontrakt mellan två parter som kommer överens om att köpa/sälja en tillgång på ett framtida datum och pris. Fastigheter i futures kan fungera på samma sätt, och det kan fungera som en försäkring för eventuellt prisfall på marknaden eftersom det kan säkra marknaden genom att minska prisfluktuationer, eller som ett alternativ för att spekulera på fastighetsmarknaden för att öka intäkterna. Fastigheter i futures kan även tillåta en bredare målgrupp att delta på fastighetsmarknaden eftersom det skulle vara ett billigare, enklare och snabbare alternativ att investera än på den fysiska fastighetsmarknaden. Studien bekräftar att det finns en efterfrågan i Schweiz för ett alternativt sätt att investera på fastighetsmarknaden. Den upptäcker dock flera svårigheter med att skapa produkten. Studien undersöker ämnet tillsammans med den schweiziskt ledande online banken Swissquote. Med en expertis inom teknik besitter Swissquote en fördel med att skapa produkten REF.

Abstract:
Switzerland has, despite being a rather small country, a big start-up scene which develops rapidly and puts forth many entrepreneurs. Currently, it is certain that any opportunity for competitive advantage must be exploited and emerging markets like India prove to be full of them. This research aims to investigate the cultural and institutional problems Swiss start-ups faced and how they overcame them when internationalising to India, using a qualitative research approach. Relevant theories regarding the topic were gathered and collated in a deductive manner with the empirical findings of five interviews conducted with Swiss Born Global start-ups, which internationalised either down- or upstream activities of their value chain to India. The findings show that institutional problems are largely dependent on the industry a company is working in. Cultural problems on the other hand occur in a more general manner and entrepreneurs internationalising to this market should be aware of the cultural differences to facilitate their internationalisation process. Further findings display the importance of an own network in the country and the indispensability of partners that help the companies navigate the Indian space.

Full text
Abstract:
The current shift towards renewable energy resources creates volatility in the electricity production that must be compensated by nevi sources of balancing energy. To ensure a normal operation of the power system, the transmission system operators procure power reserves able to provide regulation energy through market processes. Virtual power plants are now likely to participate on the balancing markets. In this study, the technical and economic feasibility of having virtual power plants participate in the Swiss balancing market is assessed. The study begins with the evaluation and compa.rison of four European balancing market designs and continues with the clarification of the concept of virtual power plant. The focus is then set on the Swiss ancillary services market, recently open to virtual pmver plants. After a detailed market description, an economic model simulating the participation of a virtual power plant made of industrial resources on the secondary and tertiary control markets has been developed. This model \Vas evaluated on an actual market design: the Sv.riss ancillary servicel:l market. 5 cases were simulated, allowing to estimate the opportunity fom both the capacity and the energy market productl:l. The simulations indicated that an example company (based on an actual situation) could hope a decrease in its energy cost between :3 and 4% by participating in a control pool over a year. Other simulations demonstrated the greater profit expected from secondary reserves compared to tertiary rel:lerves, and the need to develop an automatized activation system. The encouraging economic study is followed by a technical overview of the envisioned system. A generic technical characterization of virtual power plant is presented, on v.rhich the Swiss use-case is later applied. The breakdown into functional requirements allowed to highlight specific issues. The design of the control strategy, particularly to deliver secondary control, as well as the hardware communication interface to use are tvw aspects that ,vill require further analysis. Additionally, on an economic level, the investment cost for remote communication modules are acceptable with respect to the economic potentials estimated in the first part, for medium­sized industrial energy resources. In conclusion, the study established the profitability of an aggregation project on the Swisl:l market but also demonstrated the need to pursue research for the project to be fully feasible on a technical level.

Svoboda, Andreas. "How Swiss private banks can survive in highly regulated markets." Thesis, University of Liverpool, 2017. http://livrepository.liverpool.ac.uk/3007195/.

Full text
Abstract:
The viability of Swiss banking secrecy has been and is being challenged. Politically the America pushes the lifting of the Swiss banking as of tax evasion. Macro-economically, it is observed that the number of Swiss private banks declined by 24% from 2005 to 2013 and the speed of consolidation in the market increased in 2014 (Collardi, 2015). Therefore, how the Swiss banking sector maintains its competence and financial status without the viability of banking secrecy is without doubt worthy to be researched. The whole thesis devotes to explore over the following two research questions: • Is the Swiss banking secrecy still viable? • Ways forward without the viability of Swiss banking secrecy. In particular, the second research question accounts for the main body of the study. It has been broken up into three sub-research themes, which illustrate from perspectives of products offered, commissions taken as well as location. Methodologically both quantitative analysis and qualitative case study were carried out to achieve convincing findings and actionable knowledge. It can be concluded that viability of banking secrecy is still viable but only for the privacy purpose. And it is believed to disappear in the near future. The findings reveal that Swiss private banks should shift their products strategies from in-house labelled products to open platforms; commission policy should be taken transparent and the function of relationship managers should be enhanced. Furthermore, possible actionable knowledge plans are being suggested. The novelty of the thesis lies in, that it explores the problem from a new perspective. It concentrates on the actionable variables instead of focusing on financial performance indicators. Nevertheless, it provides an actionable guidance for the Swiss banking sector on how to maintain or improve the financial performance without the viability of banking secrecy in the near future.

Dissertação de Mestrado em Design de Moda apresentada na Faculdade de Arquitetura da Universidade de Lisboa para obtenção do grau de Mestre.
O presente estudo refere-se a um estágio académico, com a duração de cinco meses, na marca de beachwear MONA Swims, uma marca de luxo de roupa de praia, ainda recente, sediada no Reino Unido e dirigida por Carla Johnson. Durante o estágio, presenciei a dinâmica de crescimento da marca, tendo tido a oportunidade de desenvolver uma leque bastante vasto de tarefas, tais como: gestão do stock; gestão da loja on-line e das redes sociais; ilustração; confecção; design de moda e design de comunicação; assistência em feiras e eventos de moda. O contacto direto com uma marca em ascensão permitiu consolidar os conhecimentos adquiridos em contexto académico que irão servir de mais-valia na minha integração em qualquer equipa de uma marca existente ou, mesmo, dar início a um projeto profissional. O relatório divide-se em cinco capítulos: no primeiro são apresentados os objectivos, os factores críticos de sucesso e insucesso, o desenho de investigação, a investigação ativa e a estrutura do documento; no segundo é feito o enquadramento histórico do beachwear; no terceiro é estudada a marca MONA Swims ; no quarto são relatadas e descritas as tarefas executadas e, por último, no quinto capitulo são apresentadas as conclusões sobre toda a experiência. Em anexo pode ler-se o diário de estágio, onde é relatado na primeira pessoa o trabalho e as vivências durante este período.
ABSTRACT: The present study deals with an academic internship, during a five months span, taken at the beachwear brand MONA Swims. MONA is a young luxurious brand of beachwear headed by Carla Johnson and based in the United Kingdom. This internship allowed me to witness the intrinsic dynamic of a growing swimwear brand, enabling the opportunity of acquiring a vast span of skills, like stock management, on-line store and social networks management, illustration; stitching; fashion design and communication design; assisting in fairs and fashion events. After a three year Bachelor’s Degree in Fashion Design and a deep reflexion on the academic path taken, it became evident that the field, which undeniably stirred a more distinct personal interest, was beachwear. With this in mind, the focus of my Master’s Degree was redirected to this particular field. This study emerges then, as the culmination of all the knowledge acquired through my academic route. Through the direct contact and work with an ascending brand, this internship allowed me to strengthen a wide range of skills and knowledge that will become invaluable when taking part in a team invested in a pre-existent brand and/or when developing a project of my own. This report is divided into five chapters: the first presents the goals, the critical aspects of success or failure, the drawing of the investigation, the active investigation and the document structure; in the second its presented an historical framing of beachwear; in the third a study of Mona Swins brand; in the forth it’s presented and explained the executed tasks and for last, in the fifth chapter it’s presented the conclusions of all the experience. As an appendix one can read the internship diary, where the actual work and experiences are presented in a more personal approach.

Abstract:
The purpose of this thesis is to evaluate how Start-Ups from Switzerland pattern their expansion to foreign markets and how prevalent traditional internationalization models are among Start-Ups. In order to conduct the research, the term Start-Up has been defined in comparison to other forms of enterprises. The first part of the literature review has been conducted regarding key concepts within the field of international business such as psychic distance or the choice of the right entry mode. The second part of the literature review has been conducted regarding relevant traditional internationalization theories as well as the international entrepreneurship theory, as counterpart to traditional internationalization theories. The theories have resulted in a conceptual framework that reveals the relations between the different theories. The thesis is built on a qualitative approach on the basis of a multiple case study by means of three interviews with Swiss Start-Ups. Further the thesis has followed a deductive approach to first build a profound knowledge about the internationalization process of Start-Ups. The authors of this thesis consider a good pre understanding of the research area as relevant to observe a pattern from the empirical observations. In the analysis chapter the differences and similarities between the theory and the empirical findings were discussed. The structure of both chapters, empirical findings and analysis, are structured in accordance with the conceptual framework. On the basis of the analysis, the conclusion chapter presents the responses of three research questions. Further the final chapter consists of theoretical and practical implications and recommendations as well as limitations and ends with proposals for a further research.

Abstract:
This dissertation studies the role of sterling during the Bretton Woods period (1944-1971). The Bretton Woods system has often been described as a dollar system with sterling having lost its relevance as reserve currency. However, despite being a secondary reserve currency and having lost importance, sterling was the 'first line of defence for the dollar' as contemporaries put it. They frequently stressed the fact that a sterling crisis would have consequences on the stability of the Bretton Woods system but economic historians have never tested this empirically. This dissertation argues that sterling played an important role in the stability of the international monetary system. Foreign exchange market participants globally monitored sterling and US policymaker stepped in to avoid devaluation of the British currency. US support to sterling was mainly due to the fear of a British devaluation, which could trigger a run on the dollar. When the UK finally devalued the pound in 1967, it marked the beginning of an instable period for the international monetary system. The Gold Pool, a syndicate to defend the US gold parity, collapsed in 1968 and this prefigured the end of the Bretton Woods system. This dissertation presents new data along with novel archival material from seven archives across continents to demonstrate how contagion from sterling to the dollar occurred. Modern econometric methods are used to analyse a new dataset with over 80,000 observations of offshore exchange rates, central bank intervention and reserves. This evidence shows that a secondary reserve currency can still play a key role in the stability of the international monetary system.

Abstract:
The digital payment industry has become one of the fastest evolving markets in the world, but in the wake of its rapid advancement, an ever increasing gap between academic theory and the actual reality of this market widens - and especially so when it comes to entry theory. It is widely acknowledged that the world is moving towards an ever more homogeneous economy, but despite the fact that payment preferences differ greatly from country to country - research on this subject continues to revolve mainly around localized efforts. But as historical inequalities between poor and rich societies continue to dissipate - learning from nations at the forefront of technological advancement increases the likelihood that the developed strategy becomes applicable to an increased number of countries. By selecting a nation most conducive to technological growth, the purpose of this report is to map the present dynamics in its digital payment industry using both recent and traditional market entry theory. However, studies geared towards globalized strategy formulation cannot be assumed as having guaranteed access to internal company-data at all times. So in order to facilitate such studies, the level of dependency on primary data required for conducting such research needs to be understood first, which is why the work in this report is constrained strictly to data of secondary nature. This, not only to further map the characteristics of this market, but also to see how open the market is to public inspection. Ultimately, the academic contribution becomes that of providing a road-map towards adapting currently available market entry theory to suit the rapidly evolving conditions of the digital payment industry from a global perspective and, when failing to do so, the aim is to also explore avenues for further research towards this end goal.

Dissertação de mestrado em Finance
This research investigates if investor sentiment is priced in the Swiss stock market. Using an indirect measure of sentiment, the monthly changes in investor sentiment are studied based on the Baker and Wurgler's (2007) sentiment index model composed by six sentiment proxies. The sentiment index is composed by the number of IPOs, the average first-day return on IPOs, closed-end fund discount, the share turnover, the share of equity issues and the dividend premium. The predictions are that for difficult to value and riskier to arbitrage stocks, investor sentiment should be more accentuated. Establishing portfolios using different types of stocks, the principal findings after this sorting approach are that when sentiment is high (low), subsequent returns are comparably low (high) for small firms, unprofitable firms, high growth and distressed firms. The predictions telling that sentiment has stronger effects on hard to value and difficult to arbitrage stocks are broadly confirmed conducting a regression approach.
Este estudo investiga a presença de sentimento do investidor no mercado suíço e o seu impacto no desempenho do mercado e em grupos específicos de ações. Usando uma medida indireta de sentimento, as variações mensais no sentimento do investidor são determinadas baseadas no modelo de índice de sentimento de Baker and Wurgler (2007) composto por seis proxies de sentimento: o número de IPOs, o retorno médio do primeiro dia em IPOs, o desconto dos fundos fechados, a quota de volume de negócios, a quota de emissões de ações e o prémio de dividendos. As previsões são que para ações difíceis de avaliar e de risco mais elevado, o sentimento de investidor deve ser mais acentuado. Construindo diferentes carteiras com base em características de ações verifica-se que quando o sentimento é alto (baixo), os retornos subsequentes são comparativamente baixos (altos) para as pequenas empresas, empresas não rentáveis, empresas de elevado crescimento e para empresas em dificuldades financeiras. As previsões que o sentimento do investidor tem efeitos mais acentuados sobre ações difíceis de avaliar e de risco mais elevado são amplamente confirmadas com as regressões.

Abstract:
Background – Recently, the banking industry entered a period of disruption, triggered by FinTech startups focusing on specific niche markets. Objectives – The goal of this dissertation is to advise TransferWise: Recommendations are given regarding key currency routes and main customer targets within the Swiss population, in light of the current competition, expectations and needs of identified potential segments and actual remittance flows. Methodology – In order to do this, market research is conducted, expert and target group interviews are held, and mystery calls are performed with main competitors. Findings – MoneyGram is the leading competitor in terms of speed, Xendpay and Currency Fair based on price, and traditional banks PostFinance, ZKB, Cantonal Banks and UBS based on client preferences. Main segments that TransferWise should target are immigrants, crossborder workers, international students and Swiss students abroad. Of these, most relevant are especially digital-affine individuals with regularly occurring transfer needs from non-Euro countries. The core needs differ among the segments, but price and trust are most significant. Dominant remittance sending and receiving countries are Italy, France, Spain and Germany. Implications – Academically, this thesis bridges traditional literature with innovative FinTech business models as basis for future research. Practically, the research offers firsthand insights into Swiss international remittance user groups, their preferred service providers and needs. It can support startups like TransferWise in their business activities, but also established money transfer organizations and banks.
Enquadramento – Recentemente, a indústria bancária entrou num período de rutura, impulsionado pelo nicho de mercado das startups FinTech. Objetivos – O objetivo desta tese é aconselhar a TransferWise. Relativamente às principais rotas monetárias e principais alvos na população suíça, considerando a concorrência atual, expectativas, as necessidades dos utilizadores e os atuais fluxos de remessa. Metodologia – Assim, pesquisa de mercado, entrevistas ao grupo alvo e a especialistas, e chamadas anónimas aos principais concorrentes foram efetuadas. Resultados – MoneyGram é o principal concorrente no que respeita à velocidade, Xendpay e Currency Fair relativamente ao preço, e os bancos tradicionais (PostFinance, ZKB, Bancos Cantonais e UBS) no que respeita às preferências dos clientes. Os principais segmentos que a TransferWise deve selecionar são: imigrantes, trabalhadores fronteiriços, estudantes internacionais e estudantes suíços no estrangeiro. Destes, os mais relevantes são os indivíduos utilizadores de serviços digitais que necessitam de fazer transferências de países cuja moeda não é o euro. As razões diferem entre os segmentos, mas o preço e a confiança são os mais significativos. Os países que mais enviam e recebem remessas são a Itália, a França, a Espanha e a Alemanha. Implicações – Academicamente, esta tese conecta a literatura tradicional com os inovadores modelos de negócio FinTech. Esta demonstra aos prestadores de serviços relativos a transferência de dinheiro, nomeadamente à TransferWise, o que os clientes esperam de transferências de dinheiro internacionais.

Abstract:
The investments in structured products have been increasing in the past few years and, jointly, also the complexity of such products has substantially intensified. In accordance, this thesis was developed with the objective to present the current status of the structured products market, namely in Switzerland, as it is the one of the most developed markets in Europe. Hence, it was analysed a sample of Barrier Reverse Convertibles and Turbo Warrants issued by the biggest Swiss financial institutions, which will permit a clear overview of the price fairness of these financial derivatives and, consequently, support more accurate and informed investment decisions. In fact, this thesis was based on previous studies which revealed that the vast majority of this type of products is substantially overpriced. Thus, besides than presenting a practical overview of this reality, other main objective was to understand the reasons and motivations of investors that could justify the increasing demand for such products. Based on the theoretical price obtained using the Black & Scholes (1973) and Merton (1973) model, and comparing that value with the market price, it was possible to conclude that, in general, all products presented an overprice considered economically relevant, being Barrier Reverse Convertibles typically more overpriced than Turbo Warrants. Regarding the main issuers of each type of product, Bank Vontobel was the financial institution with most fairly priced products related to Turbo Warrants, while Bank Julius Baer should be the safest choice for investments in Barrier Reverse Convertibles.
Os investimentos em produtos estruturados têm vindo a aumentar nos últimos anos e, a par dessa evolução, também a complexidade desses produtos se tem intensificado substancialmente. Neste sentido, esta dissertação foi desenvolvida com o objetivo de retratar o estado atual do mercado de produtos estruturados, nomeadamente na Suíça, por ser um dos mercados mais desenvolvidos da Europa. Deste modo, foi analisada uma amostra de Barrier Reverse Convertibles e Turbo Warrants emitidos pelas maiores instituições financeiras suíças, o que permitirá uma visão clara dos preços destes derivados financeiros e, consequentemente, suportar decisões de investimento mais precisas e informadas. A presente tese foi baseada em estudos anteriores, os quais revelaram que o preço da grande maioria deste tipo de produtos está substancialmente inflacionado. Assim, além de apresentar resultados práticos e representativos dessa realidade, outro objetivo principal passou também por entender as razões e motivações dos investidores que justificar o aumento da procura de tais produtos. Com base no preço teórico obtido pelo modelo Black & Scholes (1973) e Merton (1973), e comparando esse valor com o preço de mercado, foi possível concluir que, em geral, todos os produtos apresentaram uma inflação de preço considerada economicamente relevante, sendo este resultado mais evidente em Barrier Reverse Covertibles comparativamente a Turbo Warrants. Em relação aos principais emissores de cada tipo de produto, o Banco Vontobel foi a instituição financeira com preços mais justos, relativamente a Turbo Warrants, enquanto o Banco Julius Baer deverá ser a escolha mais segura para investimentos em Barrier Reverse Convertibles.
