Solactive is pleased to announce a further collaboration with Themes ETFs with the launch of the Solactive United States Infrastructure Index, a fully rule-based index tracked by the Themes US Infrastructure ETF. Infrastructure development is a cornerstone of economic stability and growth, providing essential support for trade, travel, and overall economic activities. As governments and private sectors prioritize infrastructure upgrades and expansion, there is a growing need for investment vehicles that provide exposure to a diverse range of these crucial sectors.
The Solactive United States Infrastructure Index comprises the 100 largest US-based infrastructure-related companies, which are vital for the development, maintenance and servicing of critical infrastructure assets. These companies are involved in a range of sectors, including construction materials and machinery, transportation infrastructure, water and energy infrastructure, telecommunications infrastructure, and infrastructure construction services. By tracking these core industries, the index offers clients exposure to businesses that are driving infrastructure development and modernization through roads, utilities, transportation networks and more. In summary, the index composition encompasses industries that form the foundation for the infrastructure that supports economic growth, trade and overall development. To ensure diversification, the weight of each individual constituent is capped at 4.5%.
The ETF is listed on 12th September on Nasdaq with the ticker symbol OR code “HWAY”.
