This ETF invests in companies participating in the government-led 'Sovereign AI' project in South Korea, covering the AI industry comprehensively. Major investment targets include Naver, LG CNS, and SK Hynix. With this launch, Samsung aims to capture the growth potential of the AI industry and consolidate its market presence, having recently surpassed 100 trillion won in net assets and now targeting 200 trillion won.
The AI industry is considered to have immense growth potential moving forward, supported by large-scale government investments and policy backing. Experts anticipate that this trend will be a key strength for the KODEX Korea Sovereign AI ETF, underlining the potential for technological innovation and EPS growth. The ETF is based on the KRX Korea Sovereign AI Index, which has significantly outperformed the KOSPI index recently.

Particularly, the focus on AI semiconductors, data centers, and cloud infrastructure investments opens up ETF to broader market demand, responding actively to investor interest. This presents another opportunity for industry transformation, potentially generating financial profits domestically and internationally, as well as delivering achievements in enhancing national competitiveness through technological innovation.
