Deutsche Börse welcomes HANetf as new ETF issuer on Xetra

Since Thursday, three ETFs of the new issuer HANetf have been tradable on Xetra and Börse Frankfurt for the first time, Deutsche Börse informed earlier today. HANetf has listed the first ETF in Europe via its white label platform and additionally two own products.

HANetf’s white label platform provides the infrastructure to launch and manage UCITS-regulated ETFs in Europe. This enables providers outside Europe or issuers without their own infrastructure to list their products cost-effectively on the trading venues of Deutsche Börse.

The first ETF launched via the white label platform is the EMQQ Emerging Markets Internet & E-commerce UCITS ETF. The ETF enables investors to participate in the performance of emerging market companies active in the e-commerce, internet trading and internet services sectors. The focus is on companies from the areas of internet broadcasting, internet media, online advertising, online travel services, online games, search engines and social networks.

With HANetf, we are gaining another innovative issuer for our ETF segment“, said Martin Reck, Managing Director for Deutsche Börse’s Cash Market. „The first ETF in Europe, listed via an independent white label platform, enriches our product offering and once again underlines Deutsche Börse’s attractiveness as a leading listing and trading platform in the European ETF market.

Hector McNeil, co-CEO of HANetf commented:

HANetf serves investors across Europe and it is critical for us and on-platform clients to ensure that our funds are available in the largest marketplaces. XETRA is the pre-eminent venue for ETF order book liquidity in continental Europe and we are delighted to have reached the significant milestone of our first listing.

HANetf’s two in-house ETFs allow investors to participate in the performance of companies that focus on innovative technologies.

The HAN-GINS Cloud Technology UCITS ETF allows investors to invest in companies that are active in the cloud computing sector or are looking to invest in a related sector.

The HAN-GINS Innovative Technologies UCITS ETF gives investors the opportunity to participate in the performance of companies involved in innovative and disruptive technological trends. These companies must generate the majority of their turnover from the areas of blockchain, cloud computing, cyber security, future cars, genomics, robotics and automation, social media or virtual/extended reality.
