Amundi Global Corporate Bond UCITS ETF USD Hedged Acc tracks the issuer-declared index: Bloomberg Global Aggregate Corporate Total Return Index Value Hedged USD. Mind the share class: this is the version hedged to USD — returns reflect the index plus the effect (and cost) of hedging into that currency. The declared annual cost (TER) is 0.17%, plus 0.02% 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 561 million euro, was launched on 4 February 2025 and is domiciled in Luxembourg. In our registry it is the largest by assets among the 2 ETFs declaring the same index.
This Sub-Fund is passively managed. The objective of this Sub-Fund is to track the performance of Bloomberg Global Aggregate Corporate 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 Bloomberg Global Aggregate Corporate Index is a subset of its parent index, the Bloomberg Global Aggregate Index, (the “Parent Index”), filtering for securities with a sector of corporate only. The Parent Index is a multi-currency bond index composed of local currency treasury, government-related, corporate and securitized fixed-rate investment grade bonds from both developed and emerging markets issuers. The Index is a multi-currency benchmark which includes fixed-rate corporate bonds with fixed minimum issues sizes set for all eligible currencies. The securities composing the Index are rated Investment Grade (using middle rating of Moodys, S&P and Fitch) and have at least one year until final maturity. More information about the composition of the Index and its operating rules are available in the prospectus and at: www.bloomberg.com The Index value is available via Bloomberg (LGCPTRUU) 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. The sub-fund may implement a sampled replication model in order to track the performance of the Index and it is therefore not expected that the sub-fund 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 sub-fund 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.

We do not publish a tracking difference for this share class — and it is not an oversight.
USBD is hedged to USD; the index the issuer places next to it in its documents is the unhedged, foreign-currency version. Subtracting one from the other does not measure replication quality: it measures the exchange rate. In a year when the currency moves 5%, “the TD” would come out near 5 points — a plausible-looking number, with decimals, and wrong.
Other sites publish that number. We would rather show one figure less than one figure wrong: the TD will return here the day we have the USD-hedged index series, which the issuer does not publish today.
