No.5 NYSE launches a Sustainable Development Goals-aligned exchange traded fund

The fund allows investors to invest with enterprises committed to the SDGs, aiming to help achieve the goals of ending poverty and supporting economic development on a global scale.
 
Reason for listing:             
 
It is the core of the capital market and the responsibility of the exchanges to bring together the responsible forces by means of capital to enable it to achieve a “return of the goodness”. NYSE uses ETF as a medium to enhance the awareness and decision-making ability of markets and investors to promote sustainable development, and provide related products and services that truly can turn the awareness and power of goodness into actions that contribute to the sustainable global economic development. The NYSE’s act will also provide a model for domestic exchanges to fulfill social responsibility and promote green finance development.
