This ETF, currently in its initial public offering stage, makes an excellent choice for the core of a portfolio, particularly if you’re looking to hedge against the Rand due to its offshore underlying funds.
I had the chance to speak with Nico Katzke from Satrix about the composition of the ETF. Here’s the breakdown:
– 45% is allocated to the MSCI World.
– 10% goes into Emerging Markets.
– 10% is dedicated to Listed Infrastructure.
– 5% is for Global Listed Property.
– The rest is invested in Bonds and short-duration corporate credit.
The IPO is now open and you have until 12:00 PM on Monday, November 25, 2024, to get involved. The ETF is expected to be listed on December 4, 2024. Since the listing price is unknown at this point (due to the variable value of the ETF at listing), you would subscribe with a specific Rand amount and receive a full allocation.
Here are the crucial details for your reference:
– JSE Code: STXGLB
– TER: 0.35%
– Tax-Free: Yes
– Distributions: Quarterly
