Growth strategy and ambition

During a press conference held today in London, Amundi presents it new growth ambition for passive management and smart-beta:  double its ETF, Indexing and Smart Beta assets under management to €200 billion by 2023.

To achieve this target, the business line will focus on three growth drivers:

• increasing client coverage in Europe and Asia;
• enhancing product offering and investment solutions;
• and boosting its retail market presence.

In line with this strategic focus, Amundi unveils the launch of Amundi Prime ETF range at a highly competitive flat rate of 0.05% across all funds¹.

The initial launch of nine Amundi Prime ETFs will offer investors exposure to the key building blocks of a diversified portfolio, accessing both fixed income and equity market indices, across a range of geographic regions: Global, Europe, USA, and Japan.

The ETFs will track indices designed and calculated by Solactive², a well-established and cost-efficient index provider. Additionally, all Amundi Prime ETFs are UCITS-compliant and physically replicated.
