FRANKFURT, Germany, April 14, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Krane Funds Advisors, LLC ("KraneShares"), a leading provider of innovative exchange-traded funds (ETFs), has announced that, as of 30/Mar/2026, options on the USD Share Class of KraneShares CSI China Internet UCITS ETF (ticker: KWEB LN, ISIN IE00BFXR7892) are now available for trading on Eurex, Europe's leading derivatives exchange. The introduction of KWEB UCITS options in Europe is intended to provide investors with additional tools that may be used to manage risk and/or seek to generate income in connection with exposure to China's dynamic internet sector.
As one of the most widely recognized ETFs offering exposure to Chinese internet companies, KWEB tracks an index of leading China-based firms primarily engaged in internet and internet-related services. KWEB provides exposure to companies operating across key segments of China's digital economy, including AI, E-Commerce, online media, cloud computing, and fintech. Its holdings include some of China's most influential technology platforms, which are central to the country's ongoing digital transformation and consumption growth.
The launch of KWEB exchange-listed options in Europe follows the introduction of exchange-listed options on KWEB US in the United States, where options trading activity has developed over time. Bringing KWEB options to Eurex makes such instruments available to European investors, who may use them for hedging or other investment strategies, subject to associated risks.
James Maund, Head of Capital Markets at KraneShares, said: "The launch of KWEB LN options on Eurex marks an important step in expanding access for European investors to China's internet sector. Following the availability of KWEB options in the U.S., we are pleased to bring similar capabilities to Europe."
The addition of KWEB UCITS options further strengthens KraneShares' commitment to providing innovative, investor-focused solutions that enhance access to global growth opportunities.
