Why add a space ETF to your portfolio?

Space is no longer just about rockets and launches. Space technologies now power the infrastructure behind connectivity, navigation, data and drone innovation.

From satellite communications and Earth observation to navigation systems and launch services, these technologies support everyday activity across telecommunications, logistics, climate monitoring and security.

Choosing individual space-related stocks can be complex. The iShares Space Technologies UCITS ETF (STAR) offers diversified exposure to companies focused on the technology, infrastructure and services behind space, satellite and drones activities, all in one investment.

As demand for data and advanced technology increases, a space-themed ETF can help investors access a long-term innovation trend while spreading risk across multiple companies.

Capital at risk. The value of investments and the income from them can fall as well as rise and are not guaranteed. Investors may not get back the amount originally invested.
