Goldman Sachs Asset Management expands European Fixed Income ETF Range with three Active ETFs

10 December 2025 | 2 minute read

10 December 2025 – Goldman Sachs Asset Management announced the launch of three actively managed exchange-traded funds (“ETFs”) in EMEA:

  • Goldman Sachs Global Government Bond Active UCITS ETF (Ticker: GOVT)
  • Goldman Sachs EUR Government Bond Active UCITS ETF (Ticker: GEUR)
  • Goldman Sachs Emerging Markets Hard Currency Bond Active UCITS ETF (Ticker: GEMB)

GOVT and GEUR seeks to offer investors access to attractive yields, steady income, diversification and potential capital appreciation by actively investing in fixed income securities issued by governments and government-related issuers, globally and in the European Monetary Union, respectively. GEMB aims to provide investors with a long-term return by actively investing in fixed income securities of emerging markets (EM) corporates, governments and government-related issuers.

The funds will be managed by Goldman Sachs’ Fixed Income and Liquidity Solutions team, which brings together more than 375 financial professionals with over 35 years of investing experience across regions, sectors and markets, managing over $1.75 trillion in assets globally.1

The launch follows a significant expansion of Goldman Sachs Asset Management’s Active UCITS ETF range in 2025, with launches across Fixed Income and Equities, providing access to the firm’s active investment capabilities within the ETF wrapper. 

The new ETFs are listed on Deutsche Boerse with listings on other exchanges to follow. The ETFs will be registered in key markets across EMEA.

Hilary Lopez, head of the EMEA Third Party Wealth Business at Goldman Sachs Asset Management, said: “Our clients continue to look for solutions combining strong active management capabilities with the benefits of ETFs. With these launches, we are expanding our range of core building blocks for Fixed Income portfolios by leveraging Goldman Sachs Asset Management’s over three decades of experience in actively managing fixed income assets."

Kay Haigh, global co-head of Fixed Income and Liquidity Solutions at Goldman Sachs Asset Management, said: “These ETFs leverage the extensive scale and deep expertise of our tenured Fixed Income portfolio management team to offer investors efficient and liquid exposure to the enhanced portfolio resilience offered by Government Bonds, as well as the inherent diversification benefits characterizing Emerging Markets Debt.”

With these listings, Goldman Sachs Asset Management manages 68 ETF strategies globally.2

On December 1, 2025, Goldman Sachs announced agreement to acquire Innovator Capital Management (Innovator), a pioneer of defined outcome ETFs. Innovator manages $28 billion of AUS across 159 defined outcome ETFs as of September 30, 2025, which will position Goldman Sachs Asset Management as a top ten active ETF provider.3

GOVT, GEUR, and GEMB have total expense ratios of 0.20%, 0.15%, and 0.45%, respectively.
