Что произойдет с VXX в конце января, кто может объяснить?

The iPath S&P 500 VIX Short Term Futures ETN (NYSEArca: VXX) and iPath S&P 500 VIX Mid-Term Futures ETN (NYSEArca: VXZ) are scheduled to mature in January 30, 2019. However, ahead of the eventual maturation, Barclays is planning to launch the iPath Series B S&P 500 VIX Short-Term Futures ETNs (VXXB) and the iPath Series B S&P 500 VIX Mid-Term Futures ETNs (VXZB). No specific release date was provided.

Unlike exchange traded funds, ETNs are debt securities issued by financial institutions that promise to pay the return of an index, minus fees and taxes. The underwriting banks, like Barclays, will typically set an ETN to mature between 20 to 30 years after they are issued. Consequently, ETNs come with a defined date for closure.

In anticipation of the final redemption date for the maturing VXX and VXZ, both of the new proposed Series B VIX ETNs will trade in parallel with the old VIX ETNs until the final redemption date of January 30, 2019.

ETN поставляются с определенной датой закрытия
