Reasons to Consider HGGB

Pioneering Green Bond Exposure

HGGB is the first Canadian-listed ETF dedicated to providing investors with exposure to global green-labelled bonds issued in U.S. dollars, offering a unique opportunity to support environmentally beneficial projects.

A Growing Market

Since market inception in 2007, there has been over U.S. $1 trillion in cumulative green bond issuances, with European and American institutions among the largest issuers.

True “Green” Verification

All issuers in the Underlying Index (currently the S&P Green Bond US Dollar Select Index) are independently verified by the Climate Bonds Initiative, an international, investor-focused not-for-profit organization.

Investment Objective

HGGB seeks to replicate, to the extent possible and net of expenses, the performance of a market index that is designed to provide exposure to the performance of global green-labeled bonds issued in U.S. dollars that are subject to stringent eligibility criteria to fund projects that have positive environmental or climate benefits. Currently, the ETF seeks to replicate the performance of the S&P Green Bond US Dollar Select Index, net of expenses. The ETF seeks to hedge the U.S. dollar value of its portfolio to the Canadian dollar at all times.
