Amundi, Europe’s leading asset manager^[1], and CaixaBank, the leading bank in Spain^[2], are happy to announce the launch of a new co-designed range of Lifecycle ETFs. These innovative multi-asset^[3] funds adapt over time to the evolving risk profiles of savers.

Unique in the European ETF market^[4], the funds offer a gradual and automatic adjustment of their allocation. As the ETF approaches its target date, the equity allocation in the portfolio progressively decreases while the share of bonds increases, following a predefined allocation strategy^[5].

This makes these ETFs particularly suited for those pursuing specific financial objectives over the long term.

Crafted for accessibility and simplicity, the Lifecycle ETFs implement a predetermined risk management through a multi-asset and cost-effective approach, with low management fees of 0.18%^[6].

CaixaBank has played a crucial role in the design and development of these Lifecycle ETFs, leveraging its deep understanding of client needs and commitment to innovation. By collaborating closely, Amundi and CaixaBank have ensured that these products not only meet the evolving demands of investors but also push the standard in client-centric financial solutions.

Belén Martín, Head of CaixaBank Private Banking and Savings and Investment products, said:

“At CaixaBank, we are committed to innovation in products and services. With the launch of this range of ETFs, we become pioneers by offering investors an innovative investment solution in Spain that aligns with European market trends. This milestone reinforces our commitment to bringing new investment opportunities to our clients”.

Gaetan Delculée, Global Head of Digital Distribution and ETF Sales at Amundi, said:

“We are thrilled to introduce the new range of Lifecycle ETFs, which was co-designed in partnership with CaixaBank to address the changing needs of individual investors in Europe. By aligning investment strategies with our clients’ evolving risk profiles, we are helping them pursue their long-term goals. With competitive pricing and the strength of Amundi’s expertise, these products are ideal for investors who may not have the time or experience to monitor their portfolios on a daily basis.”
