Kiwoom Asset Management Launches Global 5G-Related Securities Investment Fund

[Asia Economy Reporter Minji Lee] Kiwoom Asset Management announced on the 7th that it will launch the Kiwoom Global 5G Next-Generation Network 50 Fund. This newly launched fund is a bond-mixed fund that combines the 5G sector investment strategy of the Kiwoom Global 5G equity fund, which was very popular last year, with a short-term government bond investment strategy.

Kiwoom Asset Management emphasized that as the 4th Industrial Revolution and the expansion of untact infrastructure are now in full swing, attention should be paid to the clear growth potential of 5G technology. Compared to other new technology themes whose futures are difficult to predict, 5G is an infrastructure technology with a blueprint already drawn, making the probability of failure relatively low, which is a key investment point.

The equity master fund invested in by this fund invests evenly across a wide range of fields within the 5G sector, including cutting-edge technology stocks such as semiconductors, IT hardware, and IT components, as well as internet services, software, e-commerce companies, and telecommunications companies. Additionally, by adding the short-term government bond strategy of the bond master fund, the product is designed to be easily accessible to relatively conservative investors.

Regarding this, a Kiwoom Asset Management official stated, “Due to recent incidents, awareness of high-risk funds has increased, leading to growing interest in mixed funds with relatively low risk ratings. The Kiwoom Global 5G Next-Generation Network Bond-Mixed Fund is suitable for investors seeking medium risk and medium returns, as it combines the stable interest income from short-term government bonds with the growth potential of global 5G equities.”

The Kiwoom Global 5G Next-Generation Network Bond-Mixed Fund is currently available for subscription through Kiwoom Securities, and there are plans to continuously expand the number of distributors in the future.
