JEPI and JEPQ soon for European investors?
Yesterday it came to my attention that JPMorgan is apparently preparing to launch the extremely popular US ETFs JEPI and JEPQ in Europe.
JPMorgan ETFs (Ireland) ICAV - US Equity Premium Income Active UCITS ETF
JPMorgan ETFS (Ireland) ICAV - Nasdaq Equity Premium Income Active UCITS ETF
The UCITS versions of JEPI and JEPQ focus exclusively on US securities and could be used to actively manage a global equity portfolio. $JEGP (+1.02%)The JEPI and JEPQ complement the JPMorgan ETF, which actively manages a global equity portfolio and sells index call options.
JEGP has raised more than USD 250 million (AUM) in just a few months. I suspect JPM is happy with that so far.
In addition, these new funds could be an interesting alternative to the two Global X funds popular here in the community, which also rely on options strategies.
Here are the links indicating the upcoming launch.
