Description

L&G Emerging Markets Government Bond (USD) 0-5 Year Screened UCITS ETF tracks the issuer-declared index: J.P. Morgan ESG EMBI Global Diversified Short-Term Custom Maturity Index. Mind the share class: this is the version hedged to EUR — returns reflect the index plus the effect (and cost) of hedging into that currency. The declared annual cost (TER) is 0.28%, plus 0.02% in transaction costs estimated by the issuer in the KID. Replication is sampled physical replication (the KID declares buying a representative sample of constituents); income is accumulated and reinvested in the fund. The fund has assets of about 910 million euro, was launched on 11 May 2022 and is domiciled in Ireland. In our registry it is the largest by assets among the 2 ETFs declaring the same index.

The fund’s objective — in the issuer’s words

The investment objective of the Fund is to provide exposure to the short term US Dollar-denominated government bond market across emerging markets. The Fund is passively managed and aims to track the performance of the J.P. Morgan ESG EMBI Global Diversified Short Term Custom Maturity Index (the “Index”), before the deduction of fees and expenses. The Index is designed to provide exposure to U.S. dollar denominated emerging market sovereign and quasi sovereign bonds with shorter remaining maturities, in accordance with its methodology.

Keep reading the KID section ▾

The Fund seeks to achieve its investment objective using an optimisation/representative sampling approach and invests in a representative selection of bond securities which, taken together, are expected to have risk and performance characteristics similar to those of the Index. The Fund may also invest in bond related securities and instruments that are not constituents of the Index but have similar risk and performance characteristics, and may use financial derivative instruments for efficient portfolio management or to assist in tracking the performance of the Index. The Fund promotes a range of environmental and social characteristics which are met by tracking the Index. Further information on how such characteristics are met by the Fund can be found in the Fund Supplement. This Share Class does not intend to pay dividends. Any income which may result from the Fund's investments will be re-invested into the Fund. Shares in this Share Class (the "Shares") are denominated in EUR and can be bought and sold on stock exchanges by ordinary investors using an intermediary (e.g. a stockbroker). In normal circumstances, only Authorised Participants may buy and sell Shares directly with the Company. Authorised Participants may redeem their Shares on demand in accordance with the "Dealing Timetable" published on http://www.lgim.com.

The depositary of the Fund is the Bank of New York Mellon SA/NV, Dublin Branch. Further information about the Fund and the share class can be obtained from the Company's prospectus and the annual and semi-annual reports, which are available, in addition to the latest prices for the share class and details of any other share classes, free of charge at: www.lgim.com.

Intended Retail Investor:The Fund is designed for investors looking for a combination of growth and income from an investment in liquid, US Dollar denominated emerging market fixed and floating-rate government and quasi government bonds which can form part of their existing savings portfolio. Although investors can take their money out at any time, the Fund may not be appropriate for those who plan to withdraw their money within five years. The Fund is not designed for investors who cannot afford more than a minimal loss of their investment.

Currency-hedged share class: our figures are computed on the issuer’s NAV, where the hedge is applied at the daily fixing. Comparison sites using the exchange price may show returns and volatility that differ by 1–2 points: on hedged classes the price-vs-NAV gap is structurally wider and grows with the length of the window. Not a data error — a measurement convention. Details in the methodology.

Drawdown — distance from previous peak

This isn’t the return: it shows how far the fund is below its previous peak. 0% = you’re at the peak; below zero = how much you’re down and haven’t recovered yet.

From month-end NAVs, over the fund’s full history, on the series shown in the chart (dividends reinvested where declared). Deeper colour = larger move.
Source: LGIM. Issuer-declared historical series; inflation: Eurostat and national statistical institutes, latest available July 2026 — for later days the index stays at the last published value (institutes publish with a few weeks’ lag). The «adjusted for inflation» view expresses value in today’s purchasing power for the selected country; volatility always stays nominal, as elsewhere on the site (deflating it would add artificial swings caused by the monthly cadence of the price index). Past performance is not indicative of future results: these are facts, not a recommendation.

Windows longer than the available price history cannot be computed and are not shown: they will appear on their own as time passes. Computed from the daily NAV series, always in nominal terms. Sharpe and Sortino use the ECB main refinancing rate averaged over the period (last year: 2.21%), weighted by days in force, as the risk-free rate. Same formulas as our public methodology: sample standard deviation annualised over 252 days; Sortino with downside deviation. Past performance is not indicative of future results.
