By IU.eu Staff | October 27, 2009 11:18 am

German issuer Comstage has continued its active expansion policy by launching 11 new fixed income ETFs.

The ETFs were listed on the German Stock Exchange’s XETRA platform on Monday 26 October and all track iBoxx indices from index provider Markit.

Eight of the ETFs track different maturity segments of the iBoxx € liquid sovereigns diversified index (maturities of 1-3, 3-5, 5-7, 7-10, 10-15, 15+ and 25+ years) and three track maturity segments of the iBoxx € sovereigns Germany capped index (1-5, 5-10 and 10+ years).

All the ETFs track the total return version of their indices and all have a total expense ratio of 0.12% per annum.

Comstage’s ETF range now totals 62 funds, with just under €3 billion under management, according to the latest edition of Deutsche Bank’s ETF Liquidity Trends report. This puts the issuer tenth in a ranking of European ETF issuers by funds under management.
