BNP Paribas Asset Management (BNPP AM) has listed four ESG equity ETFs on the London Stock Exchange, a new venture for the company.
The four ETFs are sub-funds of the BNPP AM ICAV, which began in early 2023. BNPP AM said the listing on the LSE will create access to a “broader range of international clients” as well as benefit from the UK’s ETF market space.
The new listings include the BNP Paribas Easy S&P 500 ESG UCITS ETF, BNP Paribas Easy MSCI ACWI SRI S-Series PAB 5% Capped UCITS ETF, BNP Paribas Easy MSCI World ESG Filtered Min TE UCITS ETF, and BNP Paribas EASY ECPI Global ESG Infrastructure UCITS ETF.

Along with the launches, BNPP AM has appointed Miriam Breen to lead the business development for ETF and index solutions in the UK and Ireland. She previously spent over 10 years at LGIM, looking after top clients for the UK wholesale and retail markets.
Lorraine Sereyjol-Garros, global head of business development ETF & index solutions, said: “These landmark listings mark the realisation of a journey two years in the making, which began when we decided to set up the ICAV, and are the result of an important collective effort across BNPP AM.
“The UK is an integrally important market for us and listing on the LSE will allow us to have a much broader reach. I am very excited to welcome Miriam, who will help support business expansion on the ground. Her wealth of experience will help to harness this momentum and drive our ETF journey into even greater territory in the coming months and years.”
