This product is a second-generation bond mixed-type ETF that uses the 'KOSDAQ 150 Short-Term Government Bond Mixed Index' as its benchmark. It invests less than 50% in the KOSDAQ150 Index and more than 50% in short-term government bonds. Following the previously listed '1Q 200 Bond Mixed 50 Active', Hana Asset Management has secured preferential rights from the Korea Exchange to use this index until the end of July 2026.

In particular, this product is gaining attention from investors as it can be included in the safe asset (30%) category under the retirement pension (DC·IRP) regulations. This actively takes advantage of the 2023 revision to the Retirement Pension Supervision Regulations, which raised the limit on stock allocation in bond mixed-type products from within 40% to less than 50%.

With this new listing, Hana Asset Management has completed a lineup of five second-generation bond mixed ETFs, including ▲1Q US S&P500 US Bond Mixed 50 Active ▲1Q US NASDAQ100 US Bond Mixed 50 Active ▲1Q K-Semiconductor TOP2 Bond Mixed 50 ▲1Q 200 Bond Mixed 50 Active.

Tae Woo Kim, CEO of Hana Asset Management, said, "The 1Q KOSDAQ150 Bond Mixed 50 Active is designed to invest less than approximately 50% in the KOSDAQ150 Index and more than approximately 50% in short-term government bonds. As there has been a lack of bond mixed-type products based on the KOSDAQ150 Index in the domestic ETF market, we expect this to provide a new option for investors who wish to maximize the allocation of the KOSDAQ150 Index in their retirement pension accounts, as well as for those seeking long-term investments in the growth potential of the KOSDAQ150 Index and the stability of short-term government bonds."
