Description

Amundi Global Corporate Bond 1-5Y ESG UCITS ETF Hedged GBP Acc tracks the issuer-declared index: Bloomberg MSCI ESG Global Corporate 1-5 Year Select Index. Mind the share class: this is the version hedged to GBP — returns reflect the index plus the effect (and cost) of hedging into that currency. The declared annual cost (TER) is 0.15%, plus 0.06% in transaction costs estimated by the issuer in the KID. Replication is direct physical replication; income is accumulated and reinvested in the fund. The fund has assets of about 329 million euro, was launched on 4 November 2021 and is domiciled in Luxembourg. 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

This Sub-Fund is passively managed. The objective of this Sub-Fund is to track the performance of Bloomberg MSCI ESG Global Corporate 1-5 Year Select Index (the "Index"), and to minimize the tracking error between the net asset value of the Sub-Fund and the performance of the Index. The anticipated level of the tracking error, under normal market conditions, is indicated in the prospectus of the Sub-Fund. The Index is a Total Return Index: the coupons paid by the index constituents are included in the index return. The Sub-Fund promotes environmental and/or social characteristics through among others, replicating an Index integrating an environmental, social and governance ("ESG") rating. Bloomberg MSCI Global Corporate ESG Sustainability SRI 1-5 Year Index is a bond index comprising multi-currency fixed-rate, investment-grade corporate debt with between 1 and up to, but not including, 5 years remaining to maturity that applies sector and additional ESG criteria for security eligibility. The Index methodology is constructed using a "Best-in-class approach": best ranked companies are selected to construct the Index. "Best-in-class" is an approach where leading or best-performing investments are selected within a universe, industry sector or class. It excludes companies falling behind on an ESG level, particularly on the basis of ESG ratings. Using such Best-in-class approach, the Index follows an extra-financial approach significantly engaging that permits the reduction by at least 20% of the initial investment universe (expressed in number of issuers). The ESG key issues include for instance, but are not limited to, water stress, carbon emissions, labor management or business ethics. The limits of the approach adopted are described in the Sub-Fund's prospectus through risk factors such as Sustainable investment risk. The ESG score of companies is calculated by an ESG rating agency, using raw data, models and estimates collected/calculated using methods specific to each provider. Due to the lack of standardisation and the uniqueness of each methodology, the information provided may be incomplete. Assessment of sustainability risks is complex and may be based on ESG data which is difficult to obtain, incomplete, estimated, out of date and/or otherwise materially inaccurate. Even when identified, there can be no guarantee that these data will be correctly assessed. The Index applies exclusions to companies involved in activities considered non-aligned with the Paris Climate Agreement (coal extraction, oil, etc.). For further information on the exclusions applied by the Index pursuant to the EU Paris-aligned Benchmarks (PAB), please refer to the "Guidelines on funds’ names using ESG or sustainability-related terms" section of the Prospectus. More information about the composition of the index and its operating rules are available in the prospectus and at: Bloomberg The Index value is available via Bloomberg (I36068US). The exposure to the Index will be achieved through a direct replication, mainly by making direct investments in transferable securities and/or other eligible assets representing the Index constituents in a proportion extremely close to their proportion in the index. The Sub-Fund intends to implement a sampled replication model in order to track the performance of the Index and it is therefore not expected that the SubFund will hold each and every underlying component of the Index at all times or hold them in the same proportion as their weightings in the Index. The SubFund may also hold some securities which are not underlying components of the Index. The Investment Manager will be able to use derivatives in order to deal with inflows and outflows and also if it allows a better exposition to an Index constituent. In order to generate additional income to offset its costs, the Sub-Fund may also enter into securities lending operations. In order to hedge the currency of the share against the currency of the index, the Fund uses a hedging strategy which reduces the impact of changes between the currency of the Index and the currency of the share class.

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

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: Amundi. 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.

Tracking difference — fund vs index

How much the fund returned above (+) or below (−) its index, year by year. It measures the actual deviation: the combined effect of costs (TER and transaction), securities-lending revenue and replication optimisations — which is why it can beat the TER. Tracking difference was positive in 0 of the last 4 calendar years: a past observation, not an indication of future outperformance.
