Impact Assessment
Market Impact: Minimal. This is purely an administrative change affecting trading symbols only. The ISIN codes, which are the primary identifiers for securities, remain unchanged.
Operational Impact: Low. Market participants and trading systems will need to update symbol references, but no fundamental changes to the ETF schemes themselves. Investors holding these ETFs are not required to take any action as the underlying securities remain the same.
Impact Justification
Administrative symbol change for ETF schemes with no impact on trading or operations, only affects ticker symbols for identification purposes
