Hana Asset Management's 1Q U.S. Aerospace Tech ETF Surpasses 500 Billion Won in Net Assets

Hana Asset Management announced that the "1Q U.S. Aerospace Tech ETF," the first U.S. aerospace tech exchange-traded fund (ETF) listed in Korea, which was listed on November 25 last year, surpassed 500 billion won in net assets in just about 11 weeks after listing, driven by net purchases from retail and pension investors.

Since its listing, the 1Q U.S. Aerospace Tech ETF has recorded uninterrupted daily net buying by retail investors for 53 consecutive trading days, the longest streak of continuous retail net purchases among all ETFs listed during the year 2025. The cumulative net purchase amount by retail investors is also about 326.2 billion won, the largest among all equity-type ETFs listed in 2025.

The 1Q U.S. Aerospace Tech ETF is the first ETF in Korea to focus on leading U.S. space and aerospace tech companies. It allocates approximately 16% each to Rocket Lab and Joby Aviation as its largest holdings, while investing the remaining roughly 68% in key related companies such as Palantir, GE Aerospace, AST SpaceMobile, and Archer Aviation. The allocation to Rocket Lab is the highest among all ETFs listed in Korea. Once SpaceX goes public in the future, the 1Q U.S. Aerospace Tech ETF plans to include it immediately with the maximum possible weighting.

Kim Taewoo, CEO of Hana Asset Management, said, "With SpaceX pushing for an IPO in 2026, the space and aerospace-related industries are expected to see significant interest and growth," adding, "We will continue to launch differentiated ETFs unique to the 1Q ETF lineup."
