14 December 2022

  • RMAU launched in 2020 and has since accrued over $700 million AUM. The gold in its custody is held by The Royal Mint at its secure vault in Wales. [1]
  • The gold ETC is partially backed by 100% recycled gold bars, and all the gold in its custody are certified post-2019 LBMA Good Delivery bars.
  • CO2 launched in 2021 and provides exposure to European Union Allowances (EUAs), or “permits to pollute”, allowing investors to withhold carbon credits from polluters.

HANetf, Europe’s first independent white-label ETF and ETC platform, and leading provider of thematic ETFs, and crypto and commodity ETCs, is delighted to announce that it has listed two ETCs on Bolsa Mexicana de Valores following their success on European exchanges: The Royal Mint Responsibly Sourced Physical Gold ETC (RMAU) and SparkChange Physical Carbon EUA ETC (CO2).

Demand for ETPs in Mexico has been steadily growing, and the country is well positioned macroeconomically relative to other Latin American and emerging markets.[2] HANetf already has 20 ETFs listed in Mexico, and is excited to introduce two innovative ETCs to the market.

RMAU provides exposure to responsibly sourced physical gold. The gold ETC was launched in 2020 in partnership with The Royal Mint, marking the first time ever that a gold ETC has been launched in partnership with a European sovereign mint. Since then, RMAU has accrued over $700 million in AUM, and has had a YTD growth of 133.8%. [3]

The Royal Mint’s unique control over the bullion in their custody means that the gold in the ETC is backed by London Bullion Market Association (LBMA) post-2019 responsibly sourced Good Delivery bars. In addition to this, RMAU’s bars are partially backed by 100% recycled gold, sourced from scraps in The Royal Mint’s manufacturing process. Therefore, Mexican investors concerned about the sustainability of their portfolios will be able to access gold that aligns with their values.

CO2 provides exposure to physical European Union Allowances (EUAs), often referred to as carbon credits or “permits to pollute”. Each EUA held by a corporation allows it to emit one tonne of carbon dioxide. By buying CO2, investors are actively withholding these permits from polluters and preventing the further release of harmful greenhouse gases into our atmosphere.

Most recently, CO2 was listed on Deutsche Börse XETRA and Borsa Italiana, following its success on London Stock Exchange.

 

Hector McNeil, Co-CEO and Co-Founder of HANetf, comments:

“We are thrilled to be listing RMAU and CO2 on Bolsa Mexicana de Valores (BMV). Both of these ETCs are the first of their kind: the first gold ETC launched in partnership with a European sovereign mint, and the first carbon credit ETC.

“We are excited to be sharing these innovative funds with investors in Mexico and address the growing demand in Latin America for exchange traded products (ETPs).”
