What is GRN?

The iPath Series B Carbon ETNs (the ETNs) are designed to provide exposure to the Barclays Global Carbon II TR USD Index (the Index). The objective of the Index is to provide exposure to the price of carbon as measured by the return of futures contracts on carbon emissions credits from two of the world's major emissions-related mechanisms (the 'mechanisms' and each a 'mechanism'). The mechanisms currently included in the Index are the European Union Emission Trading Scheme ('EU ETS') and the Kyoto Protocol's Clean Development Mechanism (the 'CDM'). The Index is composed of allocations in futures contracts on a carbon emissions credit from each mechanism included in the Index (each such contract, an 'Index Component'). The Index Components currently included in the Index are futures contracts that trade on the ICE Futures Europe exchange. The allocations of the Index to the Index Components are adjusted on an annual basis.

What is ETF correlation?

Correlation is a measure of the strength of the relationship between two ETFs. It quantifies the degree to which prices of the two ETFs typically move together.

Here, correlation is measured over the past year with the Pearson correlation coefficient (Pearon’s r), which ranges from -1 to 1.

Using ETF correlations in portfolio and strategy construction

ETF correlations can help you create investing strategies and portfolios. Use them to:

  • Build a diversified portfolio from uncorrelated or inversely correlated ETFs with the aim of minimizing portfolio risk.
  • Compare correlated or related ETFs to find one with a lower expense ratio or higher trading volume.
  • Create an investing strategy that hedges an ETF with an uncorrelated or inversely correlated ETF.
