IBOT offers global exposure to the rise of the robotics
industry, which is projected to grow to over $90B by 2026.1
IBOT joins VanEck’s forward-looking thematic ETFs lineup, providing
a way for investors to invest in the technologies shaping our
future.
VanEck today announced the launch of the VanEck Robotics ETF
(IBOT), a thematic equity ETF offering exposure to the leading
global companies that are driving and benefiting from the growth of
the robotics industry. As economic environments rapidly shift,
labor shortages grow, and the world trends toward deglobalization,
the need to introduce more automation and greater efficiency across
a range of industries is increasing.
“Industrial robotics are experiencing the twin tailwinds of
increasing demand and declining costs, and the global marketplace
for these machines is expected to double in just the next five
years,” said Michael Cohick, Director of Product Management at
VanEck. “For investors looking to participate in this growing
trend, a global approach is key, as is ensuring exposure across the
main sub-sectors of the robotics industry, given the range of use
cases and the pace of innovation that are emerging across so many
sectors of the global economy.”
IBOT seeks to track the performance, before fees and expenses,
of MarketVector Index’s BlueStar Robotics Index. The Index is
designed to provide pure play exposure to the robotics space, so to
be eligible for inclusion, companies must generate at least 50% of
their revenues from one of the sub-themes identified by VanEck and
MarketVector, which include:
- Robots and manufacturing/industrial automation systems
- Robotic surgical systems
- Additive manufacturing (i.e. 3D printing)
- Robotics or manufacturing computer aided design
- Semiconductor manufacturing systems
- Machine vision
Additionally, companies must have a full market cap of $500M,
and a 3-month average-daily-trading volume of at least $1M.
Companies will be cap weighted at 5% and the Index also implements
a fixed tier modified float-adjusted market cap weighting scheme,
with robotics/manufacturing at 50% weight, machine vision and
robotics software at 25%, and embedded chips, robotic surgical
systems and semiconductor manufacturing also at 25%.
“We are proud to announce the licensing of the BlueStar Robotics
Index to VanEck to underlie an ETF,” said Thomas Kettner, COO of
MarketVector Indexes. “Being involved in the robotics industry has
proven to be a pioneering business model. The robotics market has
been steadily growing since the index’s inception, transforming
multiple industries. This is an exciting expansion of products
linked to MarketVector’s thematic index family.”
IBOT joins a thematic equity lineup that includes VanEck Video
Gaming and eSports ETF (ESPO), VanEck Semiconductor ETF (SMH), and
VanEck Biotech ETF (BBH).
About VanEck
VanEck has a history of looking beyond the financial markets to
identify trends that are likely to create impactful investment
opportunities. We were one of the first U.S. asset managers to
offer investors access to international markets. This set the tone
for the firm’s drive to identify asset classes and trends –
including gold investing in 1968, emerging markets in 1993, and
exchange traded funds in 2006 – that subsequently shaped the
investment management industry.
Today, VanEck offers active and passive strategies with
compelling exposures supported by well-designed investment
processes. As of February 28, 2023, VanEck managed approximately
$71B in assets, including mutual funds, ETFs and institutional
accounts. The firm’s capabilities range from core investment
opportunities to more specialized exposures to enhance portfolio
diversification. Our actively managed strategies are fueled by
in-depth, bottom-up research and security selection from portfolio
managers with direct experience in the sectors and regions in which
they invest. Investability, liquidity, diversity, and transparency
are key to the experienced decision-making around market and index
selection underlying VanEck’s passive strategies.
Since our founding in 1955, putting our clients’ interests
first, in all market environments, has been at the heart of the
firm’s mission.
