A ribbon-shaped substrate and at least one superconductive layer form a multifilament conductor in which the superconductive layer is divided into filaments. The ribbon-shaped substrate has a first direction parallel to the longitudinal direction thereof, and the at least one filament has a second direction parallel to the longitudinal direction thereof. The first and second directions form an angle not equal to zero. The filaments of the multifilament conductor can be configured on the front and back of the conductor and be electrically connected to each other such that a transposed conductor is created.
