Amundi UK Government Inflation‑Linked Bond (DR)

ETF description

This ETF is designed to give investors exposure to a selection of UK government bonds, known as gilts, that are linked to inflation. These types of bonds are unique because their value increases with inflation, which helps protect the purchasing power of the money invested. By investing in this ETF, individuals can gain access to a diversified collection of these inflation‑linked gilts.

This ETF may appeal to investors who are concerned about rising prices and want a way to safeguard their investments against inflation.
