Amundi has announced the launch of two new exchange-traded funds (ETFs) aimed at expanding its equity ETF portfolio.

The new funds – Amundi MSCI USA UCITS ETF and Amundi MSCI World EX USA UCITS ETF – offer investors additional allocation tools designed to meet diverse investment strategies.

The Amundi MSCI USA UCITS ETF seeks to replicate the MSCI USA Index, providing investors with exposure to approximately 85 per cent of the free float-adjusted market capitalisation in the United States. With a management fee of 0.03 per cent, this ETF is the most cost-effective UCITS product replicating the MSCI USA Index currently available on the market.

It offers a competitive option for investors looking to gain exposure to the US market within the framework of the MSCI index series.

Meanwhile, the Amundi MSCI World EX USA UCITS ETF provides access to equity markets in 22 developed countries outside of the United States. This ETF is an ideal tool for investors seeking to enhance portfolio diversification by specifically excluding US equities. With management fees set at 0.15 per cent, the fund offers a streamlined and competitive solution for global exposure in a single transaction.

Amundi head of ETF, indexing and smart beta, Benoit Sorel, commented: “These two ETFs offer investors the opportunity to manage their exposure to US and global markets more precisely, adding an already comprehensive toolkit for increasingly granular allocation. These new offerings demonstrate our commitment to developing valuable solutions tailored to our clients' needs.”
