Global ETF launches May 7-14, 2026: JURY, sector and space ETFs
Global ETF issuers launched funds May 7-14, 2026, including The Justice Company’s JURY human-rights high-dividend ETF, Franklin Templeton’s four S&P 500 sector ETFs and BetaShares’ ASX space ETF.
Between May 7 and 14, 2026, several ETF issuers introduced new exchange-traded funds across regions and strategies.
The Justice Company launched JURY, a high-dividend equity ETF that applies human-rights screening criteria to its holdings. The fund is designed to exclude companies that fail the fund’s human-rights standards while targeting dividend-paying equities.
Franklin Templeton introduced four ETFs that provide targeted exposure to sectors of the S&P 500. Each fund offers investors a way to allocate capital to a specific U.S. large-cap sector without buying individual stocks.
BetaShares listed an ASX-traded space sector ETF that aims to track companies involved in space-related activities, including satellite services, launch providers and aerospace technologies. The listing gives Australian investors an exchange-traded option for thematic exposure to the space industry.
Deutsche Börse added ACATIS as a new ETF issuer on its Xetra trading platform during the same period, expanding the roster of issuers whose products can trade on the venue.
The Australian Securities Exchange reported a slate of ETF admissions for April. On April 1 Avantis listed three active equity ETFs: Avantis Global Equity Active ETF (ASX: AVNG), Avantis Global Small Cap Value Active ETF (ASX: AVSV) and Avantis Emerging Markets Equity Active ETF (ASX: AVTE). The Muzinich BDC Income Fund – Active ETF (ASX: BDCI) was admitted April 1. Spheria’s Australian Smaller Companies Fund – Active ETF (ASX: SPHX) was admitted April 15. On April 29 ETFS listed two miners-focused ETFs, ETFS Global Pure Play Copper Miners ETF (ASX: CPPR) and ETFS Global Lithium Miners ETF (ASX: VOLT). On April 30 BetaShares admitted the BetaShares 2031 Fixed Term Corporate Bond Active ETF (ASX: 31BB), and VanEck listed three Core+ diversified active ETFs: Diversified Balanced (ASX: VBAL), Diversified Growth (ASX: VGRO) and Diversified High Growth (ASX: VHGR).
The new listings and admissions cover thematic exposure to space and mining, sector-specific S&P 500 allocation, active equity strategies and a fixed-term corporate bond product. The releases occurred on established exchanges including the ASX and Xetra during April and the week of May 7-14, 2026.
