German investment giant Deka has launched a socially responsible thematic equity ETF targeting companies facilitating the transition to sustainable energy.
German investment giant Deka has added a fixed income ETF to its line-up of climate-conscious socially responsible investment solutions. The Deka MSCI EUR Corporates Climate Change ESG UCITS ETF (D6RA GY) has been listed on Deutsche Börse Xetra.
Index provider Stoxx has initiated a market consultation process to consider proposals regarding the reform of the DAX index in the wake of the failure of former constituent, Wirecard.
German investment giant Deka has partnered with MSCI to launch a suite of responsible ETFs that combine low-carbon and environmental, social, and governance (ESG) investment strategies. The five Deka MSCI Climate Change ESG ETFs, which target global developed, US, European, eurozone, and German equity markets, have listed on Deutsche Börse Xetra and come with expense ratios ranging between 0.20% and 0.25%.
German investment giant Deka has expanded its passive offering with the launch of three “classic market beta” ETFs on Deutsche Börse’s Xetra platform. The funds, which are linked exclusively to indices from Solactive, offer low-cost beta exposure to German large-cap equities, intermediate-term US Treasuries, and to short-term euro credit.
Deka Investments has launched the Deka MSCI World UCITS ETF (ELFW GY) on Deutsche Börse’s Xetra. The ETF provides exposure to the MSCI World Index, a well-known reference for the performance of global developed market equities.
Deka Investments, a German provider of exchange-traded funds, has launched a new ETF, the Deka Eurozone Rendite Plus 1-10 Bond Index (ELFD GY), offering exposure to the highest yielding eurozone government bonds that possess investment grade status. The fund invests in highly liquid “plain vanilla” government bonds, denominated in euros, and issued by eurozone countries with an outstanding volume of at least €2bn. Constituent countries are required to be classified with ‘investment grade’ status, possessing a minimum rating of BBB- or its equivalent.
Deka Investments, a German provider of exchange-traded funds, has launched the Deka EURO iSTOXX ex Fin Dividend+ UCITS ETF which provides exposure to a portfolio of high-yielding eurozone equities from all sectors apart from financials. “The EURO STOXX Index is one of Europe’s most well-respected benchmarks for companies in the eurozone.” said Gordon Rose, Head of ETF Management and Development at Deka Investment. ”Adding ex-Financials and high dividend yield filters to this makes a very appealing index for market participants.”
Deka Investment, a German provider of exchange-traded funds, has launched the Deka Euro Oekom Sustainability UCITS ETF, a Deutsche Börse-listed ETF providing exposure to a portfolio of large-cap Eurozone equities that meet high sustainability standards. The ETF is the latest in a growing band of Socially Responsibility Investing (SRI) and Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) conscious investment products. Initiatives like the United Nations-supported Principles for Responsible Investment have long promoted the benefits of investing in a sustainable and ethical fashion. Through this approach the investor explicitly supports those companies that are making the effort to operate in a fashion that benefits both society and the environment.
