New State Street Global Advisors ETFs Aimed at Providing Clients with Income and Inflation Protection

State Street Global Advisors (SSgA)*, the asset management arm of State Street Corporation (NYSE:STT), today announced the availability of the SPDR S&P Global Dividend ETF (Symbol:WDIV) and the SPDR Barclays 1-10 Year TIPS ETF (Symbol:TIPX). The SPDR S&P Global Dividend ETF is designed to provide investors with precise exposure to both developed and emerging market dividend paying companies, through a globally diversified income portfolio strategy. The SPDR Barclays 1-10 Year TIPS ETF is designed to provide investors with access to U.S. Treasury Inflation-Protected Securities (TIPS). Both funds began trading on NYSE Arca on May 30, 2013.

“In the sustained low rate environment, clients are grappling with how to meet their income objectives while staying within their own risk boundaries. Investors are embracing strongly diversified income products to provide a level of downside protection in their portfolios, as evidenced by the growth of the SPDR S&P Dividend ETF (Symbol:SDY), the SPDR S&P Emerging Markets Dividend ETF (Symbol:EDIV) and the SPDR S&P International Dividend ETF (Symbol:DWX),” said James Ross, senior managing director and global head of SPDR Exchange Traded Funds at SSgA. “The new SPDR S&P Global Dividend ETF adds to this suite of products and gives investors access to companies in both developed and emerging markets that have consistently delivered high yield dividends over the last ten years.”

The SPDR S&P Global Dividend ETF seeks to track the performance of the S&P Global Dividend Aristocrats Index, which measures the performance of the highest dividend yielding companies within the S&P Global Broad Market Index (BMI) that have followed a policy of increasing or stable dividends for at least 10 consecutive years. To ensure diversification, the weight for each index constituent is capped at 3 percent, and the weight of each country and GICS Sector is capped at 25 percent at each index rebalancing. The SPDR S&P Global Dividend ETF’s expense ratio is 0.40 percent.

The SPDR Barclays 1-10 Year TIPS ETF seeks to track the performance of the Barclays 1-10 Year Government Inflation-linked Bond Index. The Index includes publicly issued TIPS that have at least 1 year remaining to maturity and less than 10 years on index rebalancing date, with an issue size equal to or in excess of $500 million. The SPDR Barclays 1-10 Year TIPS ETF’s expense ratio is 0.15 percent.

ETFs trade like stocks, are subject to investment risk, fluctuate in market value and may trade at prices above or below the ETFs net asset value. Brokerage commissions and ETF expenses will reduce returns.

Risk associated with equity investing include stock values which may fluctuate in response to the activities of individual companies and general market and economic conditions.

Foreign investments involve greater risks than U.S. investments, including political and economic risks and the risk of currency fluctuations, all of which may be magnified in emerging markets.

Non-diversified funds that focus on a relatively small number of issuers and countries tend to be more volatile than diversified funds and the market as a whole.

Bond funds contain interest rate risk (as interest rates rise bond prices usually fall); the risk of issuer default; issuer credit risk; liquidity risk; and inflation risk.

Increase in real interest rates can cause the price of inflation-protected debt securities to decrease. Interest payments on inflation-protected debt securities can be unpredictable.

The SPDR S&P Global Dividend ETF invests by sampling the index, holding a range of securities that, in the aggregate, approximates the full Index in terms of key risk factors and other characteristics which may cause the Fund to experience tracking errors relative to performance of the index.
