Thematic ETFs

Uncovering opportunities with thematic investing

Our thematic process is
supported by four pillars

Sustainable
Demonstrable themes with the long-term potential to generate revenue, transform industries and grow substantially.
Definable
A clear strategy rooted in a new or novel idea, distinctive approach, or differentiated execution.
Investable
An identifiable, rules-based index (or indexes) aligned with a fund's objectives.

Global changes creating
opportunities

Our Thematic ETFs converge around a series of unique and powerful ideas that are additive to investors' portfolios, with a focus of long-term sustainable opportunities created by shifts in consumer behavior, technology and demographics.
