The Invesco Morningstar Global Next Gen AI Index ETF (INAI, INAI.F) is based on the Morningstar® Global Next Generation Artificial Intelligence Index, which is designed to deliver exposure to companies anticipated to have significant economic benefits due to their role in the advancement of AI technologies, including next generation AI technologies such as generative AI, AI data and infrastructure, AI services and AI software technologies.

Invesco is also launching a new ultra-short duration ETF to give Canadian investors the opportunity to access high quality US floating-rate notes in a Canadian ETF that is purchased in US dollars. The Invesco US Treasury Floating Rate Note Index ETF (USD) (IUFR.U) tracks the FTSE US Treasury Floating-Rate Note Index, which seeks to invest in US Treasury floating rate notes with time-to-maturity greater than or equal to one month.

The initial offering of the two ETFs included in the above table has now closed. Units in the ETFs will be available for trading on TSX when the market opens today.

"Bps" refers to the unit of measurement known as "basis points," used to describe a percentage value or rate. One basis point is equivalent to 0.01% (1/100th of a percent) or 0.0001 in decimal form.
