JP Morgan Asset Management has added three new funds to its suite of thematic active ETFs.
The new funds are the JPMorgan Sustainable Consumption ETF, JPMorgan Social

natural resources, improve resource use, or reduce waste. This includes
companies that facilitate the sustainable use of materials, production and
design technologies, sustainable agriculture and food, such as precision

believes are well-positioned to benefit from growing demand for goods and
services that facilitate economic empowerment of people across all levels of
society and help people and communities survive and thrive. This includes
companies that are facilitating building and delivering essential amenities,
affordable housing and infrastructure, health and wellbeing, education and
training talent, attainable financing, and access to the digital ecosystem.

or buildings but also companies providing key social services such as medical
