Lyxor ETF EURO STOXX 50 Dividends gives investors the opportunity to participate for the first time in the performance of EURO STOXX 50 Dividend Points (DVP) Futures Index issued recently by STOXX. This index tracks the performance of a hypothetical portfolio in which an equal amount is invested in Eurex futures contracts. The futures contracts are traded on the dividend yields of the companies from the EURO STOXX 50 Index and have maturities of one to five years.


Lyxor ETF Daily ShortDAX x2 allows investors to participate in the inverse performance of the DAX index with a double leverage factor. The DAX index is calculated by Deutsche Börse and comprises the 30 German companies with the highest turnover and market capitalization that are listed on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange (Frankfurter Wertpapierbörse - FWB).


The third Lyxor ETF now launched on Xetra offers investors the chance to participate for the first time in the performance of the Lyxor ETF Daily Double Short Bund Index. This strategy index, which was developed by Société Générale, tracks the inverse performance of 10-year German government bonds with a double leverage factor.


The product offering in Deutsche Börse’s XTF segment currently contains a total of 674 exchange-listed ETFs, making it the largest offering of all European stock exchanges. This selection, together with an average monthly trading volume of around €14 billion, makes Xetra Europe’s leading trading venue for ETFs.
