Amundi, Europe’s leading asset manager[1], announces the launch of two new ETFs, expanding its ESG low tracking error range: Amundi MSCI USA Screened UCITS ETF,
Amundi MSCI World Screened UCITS ETF.
These two funds of Amundi ETF ICAV complement the recently launched Amundi MSCI Europe Screened UCITS ETF [2].
A growing number of investors want to combine responsible investment with performances aligned with major indices. These ETFs, passively managed, meet that need through a low tracking error approach, designed to minimise performance gap with benchmark performance while respecting investors’ extra-financial approach.
As client demand for responsible investment solutions remains resilient but diverse, Amundi continues to broaden its offering to address varying expectations.
All three ETFs in the range make a physical replication and are classified as Article 8 under the SFDR regulation[3].
Benoît Sorel, Global Head of ETF & Indexing at Amundi, said: “This launch reflects our commitment to offering responsible investment solutions that allow our clients to invest in line with their convictions, with clearly defined ESG criteria. This new range combines extra-financial standards with low tracking error — a key current expectation.”
