The ETF, which now has a 13-month track record and over US$220 million in assets, offers a gross yield of over 20% and a duration of just 2.5 years.

The new listing provides investors exposure to USD-denominated Asian high yield corporate bonds, and is classified as Article 8 under the EU Sustainable Finance Disclosure Regulation (SFDR).

Asia high yield offers huge opportunities

“The opportunities offered by Asia high yield to investors are clear, but there have been some recent challenges in the Chinese real estate market,” says Tabula Chief Commercial Officer, Stefan Garcia.

 “However, we have seen consistent inflows into our Asia ex-Japan High Yield bond ETF, showing investors are becoming increasingly confident about this market. This is being fuelled by a growing package of economic stimulus in the country and a loosening of Chinese fiscal policies. Our SEK-Hedged listing, launched in response to requests from investors, is further evidence of demand for products with ESG integration that deliver yield.”

The new SEK-Hedged share class is listed on Cboe and joins USD, GBP-Hedged and EUR-Hedged listings across multiple European exchanges.
