  • Solactive Pushes Forward APAC Expansion With The Release Of Its First Indices Underlying Japanese Index Funds Issued By Asset Management One

    Date 16/01/2020

    The Japanese market for passive investments prospers. According to various studies, this week, for the first time in history, Japanese investors have put more money into index funds than actively managed ones. At the same time, thematic investments have been gaining traction over the last couple of years, and it’s expected that the momentum of these strategic investment vehicles is going to accelerate even further, given the vast importance of future trends that are set to shape our next decade. Now, major Japanese Asset Manager Asset Management One combines the Japanese investor’s appetite for passive solutions alongside the rise in demand for thematic investments by leveraging Solactive’s experience in thematic indexing to release five Index funds tracking technological trends that have already reshaped society and, presumably, will alter the world population’s lifestyle.
