Abu Dhabi investor Lunate Capital is launching an exchange-traded fund (ETF) tracking Japanese equities that will be listed on the Abu Dhabi securities exchange (ADX), the firm said in a statement on Thursday.

Lunate said the Chimera S&P Japan UCITS ETF, its third ETF so far this year, will list on May 29 and give investors access to the top 30 most liquid Japanese stocks listed on the Tokyo Stock Exchange including Toyota and Sony.

Lunate manages $105 billion of assets.

The ETF market will contribute to bolster "Abu Dhabi's plan to diversify its economy and attract more investors to its financial center," ADX's CEO Abdulla Salem Alnuaimi was quoted as saying in Thursday's statement.

Investors will be able to subscribe to the ETF between 16-23 May, Lunate added.
