SG Corporate & Investment Banking and CDC IXIS Capital Markets have committed their support to provide liquidity on the EuroMTS 3-5Y Master Unit and 10-15Y Master Unit.
"The EuroMTS Global Master Unit already provides institutional and retail investors with the first opportunity of access to a diversified portfolio of eurozone government bonds across a representative range of maturities. The addition of the maturity band ETFs is a natural progression to enable buy and sell side institutions to exploit the yield curve in a similarly convenient and cost efficient manner" said Isabelle Bourcier - ETF Global Coordinator for Lyxor Asset Management.
The EuroMTS indices are the first real time, independent government securities indices derived from the CNO Etrix and CNO indices first established in 1989. Since January 2003 the indices have been calculated using tradable prices sourced from the MTS inter-dealer markets, the premier trading system for European fixed income securities. The transparency of the indices is underpinned by index data available on many data vendors including Reuters, Bloomberg, Thomson Datastream, S&P Funds and at www.euromtsindex.com.
