Description

The Amundi Global Aggregate Green Bond UCITS ETF GBP Hedged Dist is structured to replicate the performance of the Solactive Green Bond EUR USD IG Index. This benchmark comprises investment-grade green bonds denominated in Euros or US Dollars, issued by sovereign entities, supranational organizations, development banks, and corporations. For investors dealing in GBP, a key feature is the integrated monthly currency hedging mechanism within this share class, specifically designed to mitigate foreign exchange rate volatility. Green bonds, by definition, are fixed-income securities where the capital raised is exclusively allocated to qualifying environmental projects that support climate change mitigation or adaptation efforts. The selection of bonds for index inclusion adheres to eligibility criteria established by the Climate Bonds Initiative (CBI), an independent non-profit dedicated to fostering investment in a sustainable, low-carbon global economy. Detailed information regarding the index's methodology can be accessed on www.solactive.com. Consistent with other Amundi ETFs, this fund offers an efficient, exchange-listed, transparent, liquid, and cost-effective means of gaining exposure to its target index.
