This innovative index provides exposure to short-term debt securities denominated in Euro, including bonds, bills, commercial papers and certificate of deposits from sovereign, supranational and agency issuers in the Economic and Monetary Union (EMU).<\/p>\n For the supranational and agency portion, the index incorporates environmental, social, and governance (ESG) factors into its selection process. For the government component, the index considers country risk ratings to screen sovereign issuers.<\/p>\n The Solactive EUR Ultra-Short Diversified Bond ESG Index<\/strong> is designed to meet the growing demand for sustainable fixed income investments by combining short duration with responsible investment principles. The index selects debt securities from sovereign, supranational, and agency issuers with a minimum amount outstanding of EUR 100 million and \u00a0a maximum maturity of 6 months. For the government debt portion, constituents are weighted based on market value. For agency and supranational debt part, constituents are equally weighted per issuer.<\/p>\n The ETF will be listed on the Borsa Italiana on 22 March under the ticker symbol SHORT IM, and on XETRA on 26 March under the ticker symbol BCFH GY.<\/strong><\/p>\n Source: ETFWorld<\/p>\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" UBS Asset Management (UBS AM) has launched the new UBS (Irl) ETF plc \u2013 EUR Ultra-Short Bond ESG UCITS ETF, tracking the Solactive EUR Ultra-Short Diversified Bond ESG Index<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":25099,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"telegram_tosend":false,"telegram_tosend_message":"","telegram_tosend_target":0,"footnotes":"","_wpscp_schedule_draft_date":"","_wpscp_schedule_republish_date":"","_wpscppro_advance_schedule":false,"_wpscppro_advance_schedule_date":"","_wpscppro_dont_share_socialmedia":null,"_wpscppro_custom_social_share_image":0,"_facebook_share_type":"","_twitter_share_type":"","_linkedin_share_type":"","_pinterest_share_type":"","_linkedin_share_type_page":"","_instagram_share_type":"","_medium_share_type":"","_threads_share_type":"","_google_business_share_type":"","_selected_social_profile":[],"_wpsp_enable_custom_social_template":false,"_wpsp_social_scheduling":{"enabled":false,"datetime":null,"platforms":[],"status":"template_only","dateOption":"today","timeOption":"now","customDays":"","customHours":"","customDate":"","customTime":"","schedulingType":"absolute"},"_wpsp_active_default_template":true},"categories":[4],"tags":[149,290],"class_list":["post-59649","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-etf-europe","tag-ubs","tag-ubs-etfs"],"blocksy_meta":{"styles_descriptor":{"styles":{"desktop":"","tablet":"","mobile":""},"google_fonts":[],"version":6}},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.etfworld.com\/nl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/59649","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.etfworld.com\/nl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.etfworld.com\/nl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.etfworld.com\/nl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/4"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.etfworld.com\/nl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=59649"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/www.etfworld.com\/nl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/59649\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":59654,"href":"https:\/\/www.etfworld.com\/nl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/59649\/revisions\/59654"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.etfworld.com\/nl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/25099"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.etfworld.com\/nl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=59649"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.etfworld.com\/nl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=59649"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.etfworld.com\/nl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=59649"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
