Live Event: Krypto im Portfolio: Hedge gegen KI-Disruption und struktureller Nachfragehebel

Viele Investoren verbinden Krypto noch immer ausschließlich mit Bitcoin. Doch die wirklich wegweisenden Innovationen entstehen heute in ganz anderen Segmenten des Kryptomarktes: Stablecoins verändern die digitale Zahlungsinfrastruktur und wickeln monatlich Transfervolumina im Billionenbereich ab. Und die Tokenisierung wird den traditionellen Finanzmarkt grundlegend transformieren. Larry Fink und andere Branchengrößen gehen davon aus, dass am Ende sämtliche Finanz-Assets dieser Welt über Blockchains abgewickelt werden.

​Wir ordnen diese Segmente ein und zeigen, welche Investment Cases dahinterstehen. Isoliert betrachtet greifen sie jedoch zu kurz: Hinzu kommen zwei Entwicklungen, die in der Diskussion um Krypto bislang kaum vorkommen, für die Bewertung der Asset-Klasse aber ebenso entscheidend sind.

​Krypto als Hedge gegen KI-Disruption

​Künstliche Intelligenz verändert Geschäftsmodelle, Märkte und Portfoliorisiken und trifft dabei genau jene Sektoren, die in klassischen Aktienportfolios hoch gewichtet sind. Gleichzeitig braucht eine zunehmend autonome Maschinenökonomie eine Zahlungs- und Verifikationsschicht, wie sie die traditionelle Finanzinfrastruktur nicht bereitstellen kann. Krypto-Assets eröffnen Investoren den Zugang zur nächsten Evolutionsstufe der KI-Adoption, jener Phase, in der Agenten nicht nur recherchieren, sondern eigenständig beauftragen und bezahlen. Diese Sicht wird inzwischen auch von großen Häusern wie Franklin Templeton vertreten. Entscheidend ist dabei die Differenzierung: Profitieren wird nicht der Kryptomarkt als Ganzes, sondern bestimmte Schichten dieser Ökonomie. Welche das sind, ist Teil des Vortrags.

​Der Generationentransfer als Nachfragetreiber

​In den kommenden Jahren wechselt Vermögen in historischem Ausmaß an eine Generation mit einem deutlich anderen Verhältnis zu digitalen Assets. Für Investoren ist das ein struktureller Nachfragetreiber: Wer die Asset-Klasse bewertet, sollte verstehen, wie sich die Käuferseite dieses Marktes in den nächsten zehn Jahren verändert.

​Anton Werner und Martin Bechter, Gründer von Fountainhead Digital, einem Krypto-Research- und Investmentunternehmen mit Sitz in Wien, führen durch den Abend und zeigen, wie sich diese Entwicklungen in Portfolios abbilden lassen.

CFA Society Austria Live Event in Collaboration with IASB: IFRS 18-Restructuring the Income Statement

CFA Society Austria is happy to invite you to a workshop on the new income statement structure following the introduction of IFRS 18 with an IASB Board member.

Who: 

Florian Esterer, Board Member IASB (International Accounting Standards Board)

Mr Esterer joined the IASB on 1 April 2023 for a five-year term. He brings robust investor experience, including experience in sustainable investment. He recently worked at Bank J. Safra Sarasin as Head of Core Equities, leading a team of portfolio managers and analysts who manage the bank’s regional and discretionary equity investment strategies. Previously, he worked at Swisscanto as head of global equities and at MainFirst Asset Management as a senior portfolio manager. Mr Esterer is a CFA charterholder, has served as a board member and was CFA Society Switzerland for nine years, and is currently member of the Disciplinary Review Comittee of the CFA Institute. 

What: 

CFA Society Austria members are invited to a round table discussion to collaborate and consult on the topic of IFRS 18 – restructuring the income statement

This workshop gives an overview of the key changes introduced by IFRS 18 that investors can expect from companies once they begin reporting under the new requirements latest next year.

Key topics covered will include:

Improved structure and detail in the P&L:

  • ·The webinar will go into the detail of the three defined categories for income and expenses that IFRS 18 introduces—operating, investing and financing—to improve the structure of the income statement. Companies will also be required to provide new defined subtotals, including operating profit. The improved structure and new subtotals will give investors a consistent starting point for analysing companies’ performance and make it easier to compare companies.

  • The webinar will also give an overview on the enhanced guidance IFRS 18 has introduced about how to organise information and whether to provide it in the primary financial statements or in the notes. The changes are expected to provide more detailed and useful information.

Transparency into non-GAAP earnings measures:

  • The webinar will go into a deep-dive about the IFRS 18 requirement for companies to disclose explanations of company-specific measures that are related to the income statement, referred to as management-defined performance measures. The new requirements will improve the discipline and transparency of management-defined performance measures, and make them subject to audit.

The workshop will highlight how investors' might need to change their financial models using examples from companies which adopted IFRS18 early.

Food & Drinks will be provided.

2 hours of CE/PD and MIFID Credits will be provided.

Live Event: Private Capital Market Infrastructure in Austria: Closing the Growth Funding Gap

  • Private Members Club, Am Hof 8 (map)
  • Google Calendar ICS

Austria has developed a well-functioning early-stage financing ecosystem supported by public initiatives, business angels and venture capital funds. Beyond the initial phase, however, access to growth funding becomes more challenging, particularly where larger, and more structured financing solutions are required.

Many growth-stage companies operate with validated business models but lack the long track record typically required by traditional capital providers, resulting in a perceived higher risk profile.

This session provides an Austrian perspective on the financing infrastructure for growth-stage companies, with a particular focus on how non-dilutive instruments and capital market solutions can complement equity financing and support sustainable growth. 

Topics

  • Austria-specific market dynamics: Overview of the growth financing landscape and structural reasons why non-dilutive, capital market-oriented instruments (e.g. corporate and Nordic bonds) remain less widely used.

  • Growth financing for scale-ups and SMEs: Typical applications, structuring approaches, and current market developments beyond early-stage funding.

  • Non-dilutive financing instruments: Venture debt, mezzanine capital, cash flow-based financing, and selected capital market structures.

  • Prerequisites and investor perspective: Requirements related to business models, KPIs, risk allocation, collateral, covenants, reporting, and governance.

  • Capital structure considerations: Key factors in building sustainable financing structures, including leverage capacity, financial resilience, role of lead investors, and structuring of security packages.

  • Advantages and limitations: Impact of financing instruments on capital structure, cost considerations, and strategic implications, including typical challenges and pitfalls.

  • Timing and process considerations: Interaction with equity rounds, financing readiness, and key success factors in execution.

  • Financing partner landscape: Overview of relevant market participants, including banks, private debt funds, and institutional investors.

Learning Objective

Participants will gain a structured understanding of how growth-stage companies in Austria can combine different financing instruments to build robust and scalable capital structures.

Speakers

  • Sven Balciunas, Founding Partner

  • Karin Pühringer, Founding Partner

TUDC | Thumbs Up Disruption Company is a boutique advisory firm specializing in growth financing and capital structuring, supporting companies and shareholders in complex financing situations.

Abstract:

This paper derives a stochastic discount factor for currency-hedged government bonds of developed markets by projecting returns onto the unconditional mean–variance efficient (UMVE) portfolio. Priced risks of international bonds differ fundamentally from those of currencies. The UMVE portfolio achieves a Sharpe ratio over twice the average of individual markets, with the market price of risk peaking during crises and periods with high inflation dispersion. While bond returns exhibit a strong factor structure, common sources of variation are only weakly connected to priced risks. Hedging unpriced risks in naive or factor-based strategies significantly improves Sharpe ratios, even under portfolio weight constraints.

Krypto verstehen: Technologie, Asset-Klasse und der Wert einzigartiger On-Chain-Daten

Im Rahmen der Krypto Kameel Reihe haben wir in den letzten Monaten den Blickwinkel auf unterschiedliche Krypto- bzw. Blockchainthemen gelegt.

Allen, die noch nicht vollkommene Experten in dieser Materie sind, möchten wir dieses Event ans Herz legen.

CFA Society Austria Event - Krypto verstehen: Technologie, Asset-Klasse und der Wert einzigartiger On-Chain-Daten

Details und Anmeldung unter folgendem Link:

https://luma.com/5203sr9q

  • Wann? - Dienstag 2. Dezember 2025 ab 17:00

  • Wo? - Café Caspar, Grillparzerstraße 6, 1010 Wien, Austria

Viele Investoren verbinden Crypto noch immer ausschließlich mit Bitcoin. Doch die wirklich wegweisenden Innovationen entstehen heute in ganz anderen Segmenten des Cryptomarktes: Stablecoins verändern die digitale Zahlungsinfrastruktur, Tokenisierung hat das Potenzial, den traditionellen Finanzmarkt grundlegend zu transformieren, und es entstehen völlig neue, technologiegetriebene Geschäftsmodelle, die nur durch Crypto möglich werden.

​Anton Werner und Martin Bechter, Gründer von Fountainhead Digital, werden zudem die einzigartige Rolle von Crypto-Assets erläutern. Diese sind nicht nur Investitionsobjekte, sondern übernehmen zugleich eine zweite zentrale Funktion: Sie fungieren als „Öl“ einer neuen, dezentralen Ökonomie. Diese doppelte Rolle schafft nicht nur eine duale Nachfrage, sondern eröffnet Investoren auch vollkommen neue, datenbasierte Einblicke, wie sie in keiner anderen Asset-Klasse verfügbar sind.

​Ein struktureller Vorteil, der künftig auch für den breiten Kapitalmarkt zugänglich und strategisch relevant sein wird.

Wir freuen uns auf eure Teilnahme.

Peter Berezin Strategy Outlook: Waiting For The Whites Of The Recession’s Eyes,

We are pleased to invite you to a joint event with BCA Research:

Strategy Outlook:
Waiting For The Whites Of The Recession’s Eyes

With Peter Berezin

Back in 2022 and 2023, when most strategists were expecting an imminent recession, Peter Berezin predicted that the US and most other major economies would experience an “immaculate disinflation,”  whereby inflation would fall with very little cost to growth. This made him bullish on stocks.

Peter’s outlook on the economy and equities soured over the course of 2024 and towards the end of that year, he advised investors to buy puts on the SPY. He used the post-Liberation Day sell-off to exit the recommendation for a gain of 536%. However, his subsequent recommendation to short ACWI flopped, causing him to close the trade for a substantial loss.

Now, Peter is moderately bearish on stocks, while he weighs the risks to growth versus the risks of higher inflation.

In his presentation, Peter will also discuss:

  • His "kinked Phillips curve framework," which predicted the immaculate disinflation and is now flagging risks of a US recession. 

  • The outlook for US inflation and monetary policy, notably given the issues surrounding the politicization of the Fed.

  • Growth prospects in the rest of the world, focusing on Europe and China.

  • Where he sees the S&P 500 going in a recessionary and non-recessionary scenario. 

  • Whether AI stocks will continue to outperform.

  • The trajectory for the US dollar and why he thinks the yen will be the top-performing currency over the next 12 months.

  • Why he remains bullish on gold and where he sees oil and copper prices going from here.

  • The latest signals from his MacroQuant model, which distils hundreds of leading indicators to predict the direction of stocks, bonds, currencies, and commodities.

When: 25. September, 6:00pm, presentation and Q&A followed by drinks & snacks

Where: Klyo, Uraniastraße 1, 1010 Wien, https://klyo.at/

Please register by sending an email to kathrin.schneeweiss@cfaaustria.org.

We are looking forward to welcoming you on September 25.
