TAIPEI, Taiwan & NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Aug 14, 2025--

Intercontinental Exchange, Inc. (NYSE: ICE), a leading global provider of technology and data, today announced that KGI Securities Investment Trust Co., LTD (KGI SITE) has launched the KGI US Top Balanced ETF, Taiwan’s first multi-asset exchange-traded fund (ETF), benchmarked to the NYSE TPEx 70-30 Equity Top 10 N-Listed & Treasury 3-10 Year Balanced Index.

“This innovative index is a blend of the large cap, technology-focused equities in the NYSE® Top 10 N-Listed Index and the treasury bonds within the ICE U.S. Treasury 3-10 Year Bond Index, offering a balanced and diversified structure for users,” said Christy Chan, Head of Client Development in APAC at ICE. “The launch of the KGI US Top Balanced ETF marks a significant milestone as Taiwan’s first multi-asset ETF and the inaugural product arising out of an index collaboration between ICE and the Taipei Exchange.”

The index co-branding agreement between ICE and the Taipei Exchange (TPEx) was announced in November 2024. ICE leveraged its multi-asset class customized index capabilities to develop the index, which rebalances monthly to a 70% allocation to ten large cap, technology-focused equities, along with a 30% allocation to U.S. Treasury bonds with maturities between three and ten years, creating a rules-based, multi-asset benchmark.

“We’re pleased to introduce the KGI US Top Balanced ETF, a core investment product designed to support long-term retirement planning,” said Albert Ding, the Chairman of KGI SITE. “This ETF not only provides investors with a strategic tool for building financial security, but also embodies KGI SITE’s enduring commitment to walking alongside our clients in realizing a prosperous future together.”
