Deutsche Boerse is further expanding its XTF segment for exchange-traded funds (ETFs) on the Xetra trading platform.
Thirteen new funds issued by dbx-trackers, a subsidiary of Deutsche Bank, have been tradable since Thursday, increasing investment opportunities on a wide range of markets.
For the first time, four ETFs are using currency indices as an underlying. These ETFs track the performance of carry and momentum strategies, among others.
A further six ETFs allow investors to track the performance of country indices, including that of the Australian S&P/ASX Index and the FTSE Vietnamese Index.
The last three funds available to investors are the db x-trackers S&P 500 Short ETF, the first Short ETF on the S&P 500 Index, and two new subject indices, the db x-trackers LPX MM Private Equity ETF and the db x-trackers S&P Global Infrastructure ETF.
