Overview
Description
UBS (CH) Fund Solutions – CMCI Oil SF ETF (USD) A-dis is an exchange-traded fund that seeks to track the performance of the UBS CMCI WTI Crude Oil Total Return Index. This passively managed ETF employs synthetic replication through a fully funded swap agreement, providing investors with exposure to WTI crude oil prices without holding the physical commodity. The index uses a laddered approach, diversifying across multiple maturities from three months to three years, with target weights such as 41.40% in three-month contracts and decreasing to 6.49% in three-year contracts, aiming for continuous exposure that minimizes negative roll yield associated with traditional futures rollovers. Denominated in USD, it distributes dividends, typically in September with possible interim payments, and is over-collateralized by 105% against the swap counterparty to manage risk. Managed by UBS Fund Management (Switzerland) AG and domiciled in Switzerland since its launch in 2010, this ETF plays a key role in commodities markets by offering transparent, cost-efficient access to the energy sector, specifically crude oil, for global investors seeking vanilla strategies focused on a single asset class.
