Two new equity index funds from the ETF offering issued by PowerShares Global Funds have been tradable in the XTF segment on Xetra since Thursday.
The PowerShares Global Agriculture UCITS ETF tracks the performance of the NASDAQ OMX Global Agriculture Index. The reference index comprises globally active companies from the agricultural sector which are listed in the NASDAQ. The stocks are weighted by free-float market capitalisation.
The PowerShares FTSE RAFI All-World 3000 UCITS ETF enables investors to participate in the change in value of the FTSE RAFI All-World 3000 Index. Companies are selected based on fundamentals, using the following four criteria: revenue, cashflow, dividend yield and price-to-book ratio.
Deutsche Börse’s XTF segment product range currently comprises a total of 1,029 exchange traded funds. This selection, together with an average monthly trading volume of around €10 billion, makes Xetra Europe’s leading trading venue for ETFs.
