UmweltBank launches three sustainable ETFs on Xetra

UmweltBank listed three sustainable exchange-traded funds on Xetra on July 27, 2026. The products include an equity ETF focused on European companies aligned with the UN Sustainable Development Goals and two euro-denominated bond ETFs that separate corporate and government green and social debt. All three track indices developed with Solactive and trade under tickers FJ7G, FJ7H and FJ7I.

The equity fund is named UmweltBank UCITS ETF – Europe SDG Focus and follows the Solactive UmweltBank Europe All Cap SDG PAB Index. The index targets companies from developed European markets that meet UmweltBank’s sustainability criteria. It uses exclusionary screens and a positive-selection overlay to favour firms contributing to the UN SDGs while meeting requirements for an EU Paris-Aligned Benchmark. Weighting is set by an optimization process intended to keep broad market coverage with lower carbon intensity. The equity index is reviewed twice a year.

The corporate bond fund, UmweltBank UCITS ETF – Green & Social Corporate Bonds Euro, tracks the Solactive UmweltBank Green & Social Corporate Bond EUR IG 0-10 Year Index. That index covers euro-denominated investment-grade corporate bonds labelled green, social or sustainable that meet UmweltBank’s eligibility rules. Bonds must meet minimum size, maturity and credit-quality thresholds and pass exclusionary screens. The index applies optimization-based weightings with issuer and country caps and is reviewed and rebalanced monthly on the last business day.

The government bond fund, UmweltBank UCITS ETF – Green & Social Government Bonds Euro, follows the Solactive UmweltBank Green & Social Government Bond EUR IG 0-10 Year Index. It focuses on euro-denominated investment-grade government and government-related bonds identified as green, social or sustainable and subject to eligibility criteria. Issuers are evaluated against country-level sustainability screens. The index uses optimization-based weightings with bond and country caps and is reviewed and rebalanced monthly.

Solactive and UmweltBank described the launch as a continuation of their collaboration on index development across equity and fixed income. Timo Pfeiffer, Chief Markets Officer at Solactive, commented: “We are pleased to continue our collaboration with UmweltBank on their ETF expansion. Working closely with UmweltBank, we developed an index family that consistently applies its sustainability framework across both equity and fixed income, demonstrating the flexibility of our indexing capabilities and the collaborative approach we bring to every partnership.” Leonie Hofmann, Sustainable ETF Specialist at UmweltBank, remarked: “True to the UmweltBank mission ‘Invest broadly & Make an impact’, we are proud to expand our range of sustainable ETFs to complement our existing product portfolio, designed for investors who seek to combine return potential with commitment to sustainability. As our trusted index provider, Solactive plays a key role in implementing UmweltBank’s rigorous sustainability criteria across both our equity and fixed-income indices, ensuring that our investment solutions remain true to our values.”

The three listings give investors separate equity exposure and two fixed-income building blocks that distinguish corporate and government green and social bonds for portfolio construction.
