January Update
In January, Lunate Capital Limited marked a major milestone by becoming the first regional ETF provider to list products on Xetra (Deutsche Börse). During the month, three new ETFs were listed across ADX and Xetra.
  1. Boreas S&P AI Data, Power & Infrastructure UCITS ETF – Acc.
    (POWA / POWR)

    On 15 January 2026, Lunate listed the Boreas S&P AI Data, Power & Infrastructure UCITS ETF – Acc. on Xetra, introducing the ETF in two currencies:
    • USD listing: POWA
    • EUR listing: POWR

    This marks Lunate’s debut on Xetra and represents the first-ever listing of a regional thematic ETF provider on the exchange.

    This share class mirrors the investment strategy of the existing AIPOWR ETF (distributing counterpart listed in ADX) and intends to accumulate and reinvest dividends received.

  2. Boreas S&P Absolute Luxury UCITS ETF – Inc. (LUXURY)
    Lunate also launched the Boreas S&P Absolute Luxury UCITS ETF – Inc., tracking the S&P Europe Luxury 35/20 Capped Index (USD) NTR (SPEULCUN). This ETF is the eighth sub fund under the Chimera UCITS ICAV umbrella and Lunate’s 22nd ETF overall.

    The ETF provides exposure to the leading European domiciled luxury companies in high-end fashion, leather goods, jewelry and watches, premium beauty and fragrances, luxury automobiles, and other aspirational lifestyle categories. The fund intends to distribute dividends semi-annually, when available. The LUXURY ETF’s initial offer period took place in 15-21 January 2026, and the ETF was listed on ADX on 27 January 2026. Total creations during the initial offer period amounted to AED 16.5 million.

  3. Boreas S&P Absolute Luxury UCITS ETF – Acc. (LUXX / LUXY)
    Continuing the momentum, Lunate listed Boreas S&P Absolute Luxury UCITS ETF – Acc. Which is the accumulating share class of the LUXURY ETF on Xetra on 27 January 2026, also in dual currency format:
    • USD listing: LUXX
    • EUR listing: LUXY

    This share class follows the same investment objectives as LUXURY ETF (distributing counterpart listed in ADX) and intends to accumulate and reinvest dividends received.
In January, secondary market trading across Lunate’s suite of 23 ETFs reached AED 14.5 million, bringing the total traded value in 2026 to AED 14.5 million. In the same period, primary market activity reached AED 25.2 million, consisting of creations in POWA/POWR, LUXURY, and LUXX/LUXY ETFs, as well as redemptions in CHADX15, QUANTM, and AIPOWR ETFs.
As of 31 January 2026, the total Assets Under Management (AUM) across Lunate’s twenty-three ETFs stood at AED 1.0 billion, reflecting a 6.7% increase since the start of the year.
