Global X Launched Hong Kong's First Copper Miners ETF (3014/9014 HK)

• The first copper-focused ETF ^[1] with dedicated access to global copper mining companies.
• The build-out of AI and data centres is expected to create an even larger vector of copper demand.
• Diversified exposure to copper miners poised to benefit from the critical mineral's supply-demand imbalance.

HONG KONG, Sept. 15, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Mirae Asset Global Investments (Hong Kong) Limited ("Mirae Asset (Hong Kong)"), through its Global X ETFs brand, is pleased to announce the launch of the Global X Copper Miners ETF (the "Fund", Stock Codes: 3014/9014), the first ETF in Hong Kong to provide dedicated exposure to global copper mining companies. The Fund is listed on the Stock Exchange of Hong Kong on 15 September 2026 with an issue price of US$1 per share and a board lot size of 100 shares.

The Fund tracks the Solactive Copper Miners Index, which draws from the universe of the Solactive GBS Global Markets All Cap USD Index, applies liquidity requirements, and selects up to 30 eligible securities ranked by total market capitalization. Constituents are weighted by free-float market capitalization with an individual cap of 7%.^[2]

Copper is the essential thread connecting physical machinery with digital intelligence, running through infrastructure, communications and security systems alike. The rise of AI and data centres has opened a new and rapidly expanding vector of copper demand, yet supply is struggling to keep pace. Copper miners sit at the source of the supply response and have potential to benefit from the greater value placed on existing production and reserves.

Dennis Fok, Co-Chief Executive Officer and Chief Investment Officer, ETF, Mirae Asset Global Investments (Hong Kong) Limited, said:

"Global X has long been at the forefront of commodity-linked investment solutions. We are delighted to bring this expertise to Hong Kong with the launch of the first copper-focused ETF trading in HKEX, which offers investors diversified access to the companies at the heart of global copper supply and marks a further extension of our commodity-linked product line-up."

Investors should not base investment decisions on this website alone. Please refer to the Prospectus for details including the product features and the risk factors. Investment involves risks. Past performance is not indicative of future performance. There is no guarantee of the repayment of the principal. Investors should note:

• The investment objective of the Global X Copper Miners ETF (the "Fund") is to provide investment results that, before fees and expenses, closely correspond to the performance of the Solactive Copper Miners Index (the "Index").
• The Index is a new index and has minimal operating history by which investors can evaluate its previous performance. The Fund may be riskier than other exchange traded funds tracking more established indices with longer operating history.
• The Index constituents may be concentrated in copper ore mining and/or copper-derived structural shape manufacturing, which may potentially be more volatile than a fund with a diversified portfolio.
• The Fund may invest in small and/or mid-sized companies, which may have lower liquidity and their prices are more volatile to adverse economic developments.
• Investment in Emerging Markets may involve increased risks and special considerations not typically associated with investments in more developed markets, such as liquidity risk, currency risks, political uncertainties, legal and taxation risks, and the likelihood of a high degree of volatility.
• The base currency of the Fund is USD but the trading currencies of the Fund are in HKD and USD. The NAV of the Fund and its performance may be affected by fluctuations in the exchange rates between these currencies and the base currency and by changes in exchange rate controls.
• The trading price of the Fund's unit on the SEHK is driven by secondary market trading factors, which may lead to a substantial premium or discount to the Fund's net asset value.
• The Manager may at its discretion pay dividends out of the capital of the Fund. Distributions paid out of capital represent a return of an investor's original investment or its gains and may potentially reduce the Fund's Net Asset Value per Share as well as the capital available for future investment.
• The Fund may suffer from losses or delays when recovering the securities lent out. This may potentially affect its ability to meet payment and redemption obligations. Collateral shortfalls due to inaccurate pricing or change of value of securities lent may cause significant losses to the Fund.
