The three new iShares factor ETFs enable investors to participate in the performance of companies from various regions characterised by the four risk factors value, quality, momentum and low-size. The regions covered are the US, Europe and developed countries around the world.

The reference indices comprise companies that are considered undervalued in terms of fundamental data, and have high return on equity, low debt capital ratios and stable earnings. These companies also report high price performance at low volatility and are among the smallest in terms of market capitalisation.

The product offering in Deutsche Börse's XTF segment currently comprises a total of 1,090 exchange traded funds. This selection, together with an average monthly trading volume of around €16 billion, makes Xetra Europe’s leading trading venue for ETFs.
