New Money Market ETF Launched on Xetra

Release date: Apr 06, 2008

The new unit class “1D” of the db x-trackers II EONIA TRI ETF (ISIN LU0335044896) has been tradable in the XTF segment on Xetra since Friday. The new unit class is similar to the already tradable class “1C” in that it participates in the performance of the underlying EONIA Total Return Index. Rather than reinvesting its income, however, it distributes it. The EONIA Total Return Index itself represents a daily rolled deposit at the EONIA rate. This is an effective overnight rate determined by the European Central Bank, which is calculated as a weighted average of all overnight unsecured lending transactions in the interbank market. The management fee for the ETF is 0.15 percent p.a.

The ETF product offering on Xetra currently comprises a total of 317 exchange-traded index funds, making it the largest offering of all European stock exchanges. This selection, together with an average monthly trading volume of over €9 billion, makes Deutsche Börse’s XTF segment Europe’s leading trading venue for ETFs.
