HANetf, Europe’s first independent white-label ETF and ETC platform, will list five ETFs on the SIX Swiss Exchange in early June, in a further expansion of the company’s pan-European distribution capabilities.

Founded by ETF industry pioneers, Hector McNeil and Nik Bienkowski, HANetf provides a complete product management, distribution and marketing solution for asset managers to launch ETFs and ETCs into the rapidly growing European ETF market.
 
The ETFs listed on SIX Swiss Exchange offer investors transparent and liquid exposure to long-term social, medical and technological megatrends:  

EMQQ Emerging Markets Internet & Ecommerce UCITS ETF (EMQQ) – provides exposure to companies operating internet and ecommerce technologies in emerging markets.

The Medical Cannabis & Wellness UCITS ETF (CBDX) – provides exposure to companies involved in the legal medical cannabis, hemp and CBD sectors.

HAN-GINS Cloud Technology UCITS ETF (SKYY) – provides exposure to the world’s 50 largest cloud computing companies, many of which are helping the world to remain productive and entertained during lockdown.

HAN-GINS Innovative Technologies UCITS ETF (ITEK) – provides  exposure to technology themes with long-term growth potential, including robotics, blockchain, future cars, social media, genomics, VR, cyber security and Big Data. The index is equally weighted by underlying theme and then by stock.

HAN-GINS Indxx Healthcare Innovation UCITS ETF (WELL) –delivers exposure to companies at the confluence of healthcare and technology, many of which are at the forefront of developing solutions to defeat coronavirus.
 
When you trade ETFs, your capital is at risk.

Hector McNeil, co-founder and co-CEO at HANetf said

“Most of the ETFs we are initially offering are firsts in the Swiss market and we have already seen significant demand from Swiss investors who have pushed us hard to bring these ETFs to the mass market.  In addition, we see megatrend ETFs as being particularly well suited to the Swiss wealth management market as they are typically highly differentiated and target long-term social or technological trends that have seen high growth in recent years.  With HANetf, asset managers can plug in to an extensive pre-existing distribution infrastructure, supported by on-the-ground sales teams which encompass all major ETF markets and platforms. This significantly reduces the time, cost and complexity of developing these relationships on their own.”

HANetf's ETFs are also listed on the London Stock Exchange, Borsa Italiana and XETRA and are passported for sale in Luxembourg, the Netherlands, Austria and Finland.
