Details

ETF description

This ETF focuses on bonds issued by companies that have lower credit ratings, which are often referred to as ‘“high yield”’ or ‘“junk”’ bonds. These bonds typically offer higher interest payments to investors because they come with a greater risk of default compared to higher‑rated bonds. The goal of this ETF is to provide investors with a steady stream of income from these bonds, while also selecting bonds from companies that meet certain environmental, social, and governance (ESG) standards. By incorporating ESG criteria, the fund aims to avoid companies that don’t align with specific sustainability principles.

This ETF might appeal to investors looking for higher income potential, but who also want to invest in companies that have better ESG practices. However, because high‑yield bonds come with higher risk, this ETF may suit investors with a greater tolerance for potential price fluctuations.

Build and manage your own portfolio or leave it to us.
ETFs have spreads and annual charges and come with risks like market volatility, liquidity, and concentration, and may not always accurately track their index. Past performance and forecasts are not reliable indicators of future results. The value of your investments, including any income, can rise or fall. You may get back less than you originally invested.
Whenever you invest, your capital is at risk
This could mean the value of your investments goes down as well as up.
