Leveraged ETFs double daily market movements, amplifying both gains and losses. The following chart illustrates how this dual exposure affects long-term portfolio performance.
Boosted by a decade of growth, the 2x leveraged index returned 22.08% p.a. over 10 years, outperforming the standard MSCI ACWI's 12.02% p.a. However, sharper fluctuations highlight the impact of volatility drag during market shifts.

A leveraged ETF offers amplified participation in market movements (up and down) and simple access to leveraged exposure, eliminating complex derivatives trading.
Comprehensive global exposure
The MSCI ACWI leveraged 2x index covers developed and emerging markets, providing exposure to 47 countries and more than 2,400 single stocks.
Amplified return potential
Leverage aims to deliver twice the daily index performance, which can increase potential returns compared to an unleveraged investment.
Efficient capital use
With leverage, a greater exposure to the index can be achieved without committing as much capital, leaving room for alternative asset allocation.
Amplified loss potential
Doubled daily volatility amplifies losses up to twice that of an unleveraged investment – increasing losses just as much as gains and raising total loss risk. However, maximum losses are strictly limited to your invested capital, with no margin call risk.
Daily reset mechanism
Leverage ETFs reset their leverage daily to achieve the stated multiple of the daily return. Depending on entry timing, holding period and market developments, individual gains or losses may sit above or below the leverage factor.
Compounding & volatility drag
Leveraged ETF performance may deviate from the underlying index's multiple due to compounding, which boosts returns in trending markets but erodes value ("volatility drag") in volatile, sideways markets.
Leveraged ETFs are for experienced investors: Active traders expressing short-term market views, and medium to long-term investors aiming to capture potential market upside despite elevated levels of volatility and risk.
Keep in mind: Leveraged ETFs are high-risk investments requiring regular monitoring. Avoid high concentrations.
