Key Summary

Strategy

1GOV.AX was created on 2023-09-26 by VanEck. The fund's investment portfolio concentrates primarily on investment grade fixed income. Each Fund aims to provide an investment return before fees and other costs which tracks the performance of its Reference Index in Australian dollars. The Funds do not necessarily aim to perfectly replicate the Reference Index on a oneto-one basis

The Global X Battery Tech & Lithium ETF (ASX: ACDC) seeks to track the performance of The Solactive Global Lithium Index before account fees, expenses and taxes. The index invests in companies involved in the lithium business. This includes companies involved in all aspects of lithium, from mining and refining the metal, to producing batteries and Electric Vehicles (EVs).
