New bond ETFs from Xtrackers on Xetra: Access to maturity ETFs on investment grade euro corporate bonds

October 9, 2024--Since Wednesday, a new exchange-traded fund from AXA Investment Managers has been tradable on Xetra and Börse Frankfurt.
The AXA IM ICE US Treasury +25Y UCITS ETF pursues a passive investment strategy and invests in long-term US dollar-denominated government bonds that are publicly issued by the US government in its home market. The ETF tracks the ICE US Treasury 25+ Year Bond Index.

Upon maturity, investors receive a proportional payout of the nominal value of the bonds, including the accrued interest payments.

The four new ETFs invest in fixed-income, euro-denominated corporate bonds with an investment grade rating. The weighting is limited to 3 per cent per issuer. In addition, sustainability criteria are taken into account to exclude bonds that do not meet Xtrackers' ESG standards.
