New Global Listed Private Credit ETF

 

The pursuit of higher income knows no bounds. Stay informed about ASX: LEND by registering here.

Private credit growth is a global phenomenon, unparalleled. Over the past decade, non-bank lenders have emerged to fund a range of borrowers seeking finance or strategic capital. For Australian investors, private credit investment has been generally limited to high net worth and the big end of town who don’t require immediate access to cash and can take concentrated positions.

We are pleased to announce that we will soon launch the VanEck Global Listed Private Credit (AUD Hedged) ETF (ASX: LEND)*.

LEND will offer investors on ASX access to a globally diversified portfolio in listed private credit. You can invest alongside the ‘giants’ and pursue higher income opportunities, with the liquidity, ease of trading and transparency of an ETF. 

Key points:

Global listed private credit exposure

  • Invest in the world’s largest listed private credit companies, with a portfolio that provides true diversification and a targeted exposure.

High-income potential

  • Private credit has proven to be an attractive alternative source of high income historically, commensurate with risk.

Exposure to a growing and sought-after asset class

  • Access via an ETF removes the barriers traditionally associated with private credit.
Australian dollar currency hedged

LEND will track the LPX Listed Private Credit AUD Hedged Index (LEND Index) which includes 25 global listed private credit companies.
