3 year performance: -15.24%; 5 year performance: 18.93% Past performance is not
an indicator for future results and should not be the sole factor of
consideration when selecting a product.
With the rollout of COVID-19
vaccines and the gradual relaxation of restrictions on public movements, global
spending on leisure travel is expected to increase by 45% in 2021, to $3.45
trillion[3].
Business travel expenditures are projected to increase by 21%, to $842 billion
in 2021[4].
Analysts expect that a re-bound
in the travel sector could be driven by the speed and extend of a COVID 19
vaccine roll out, pent up demand resulting from trips not taken during the
pandemic, growth of the disposable income and savings as well as the size and
pace of a global economic recovery.
However, these increases still leave leisure and business travel
spending far below their 2019 peak and it is likely to take several more years
to regain all of the lost ground.
The TRYP travel industry ETF will track the Solactive Airlines, Hotels, Cruise Lines Index. The index-
back-tested performance shows it achieved 62.07% net total returns in the past
year. Past performance is no guarantee
of future results. When you trade ETFs your capital is at risk.
The ETF will have a Total Expense
Ratio of 69bps.
Hector McNeil co-Founder and
co-CEO at HANetf said “The travel
industry has been decimated after the Pandemic but we are optimistic about a
rebound in the travel industry in the short term due to the speed and extent of
a COVID 19 vaccine roll out, business travel restarting and pent up demand resulting from trips not
taken during the pandemic. Over the
longer term, the growth of disposable income and savings as well as the size
and pace of a global economic recovery will be key factors although it may take
a few years to regain the lost ground.
We launched the travel industry ETF
for investors who want a way to trade a recovery of the travel industry in a
single product and we are delighted to be able to launch TRYP on the London
Stock Exchange later this month.”
“Launching the Airlines, Hotels and Cruise Lines ETF
expands our range of innovative ETFs and ETCs and is another European first
which we are delighted to bring to market with. We are very proud of the many
firsts we have brought to the European ETF market including Europe’s first
Space ETF and Europe’s first pure-play solar energy ETF. HANetf’s extensive
range really is setting the pace for providing investors with ETFs that have
great stories and unique strategies”
