The Chimera S&P Pakistan UCITS ETF is the second sub-fund under the Chimera UCITS ICAV, an open-ended Irish Collective Asset-management Vehicle (ICAV) umbrella fund with FundRock Management Company as its appointed manager. The initial offering period will commence on 16 August and end on 17 August 2023. Both the sub-fund and ICAV are authorized and regulated by the Central Bank of Ireland.
