Lyxor has launched four exchange-listed index funds (ETFs) on Xetra and Börse Frankfurt – three focused on inflation-linked government bonds and one on commodities.
The Lyxor Commodities Thomson Reuters/CoreCommodity CRB EX-Agriculture TR UCITS ETF enables investors to participate in the performance of a commodity basket of industrial and precious metals and energy excluding agriculture and livestock. The commodities tracked by futures contracts are aluminium, copper, crude oil, gold, heating oil, natural gas, nickel, petrol and silver.
The three other Lyxor ETFs enable investors to participate in the performance of inflation-linked government bonds.
Lyxor EUR 2-10Y Inflation Expectations UCITS ETF provides exposure to breakeven inflation by entering into a long position in inflation-linked bonds issued by France and Germany and a short position in France and Germany sovereign bonds with adjacent durations.
Lyxor USD 10Y Inflation Expectations UCITS ETF and Lyxor US TIPS (DR) UCITS ETF provide exposure to breakeven inflation of 10-year and 2 to 10-year US Treasuries, respectively.
