Allspring Global Investments Launches Three New Fixed Income ETF Share Classes
Allspring Global Investments has announced the launch of three new ETF share classes for its existing mutual funds, marking a strategic move to provide investors with greater flexibility. The new offerings include the Allspring Short-Term High Income Fund–ETF Class (AHIC), the Allspring Strategic Municipal Bond Fund–ETF Class (ASTM), and the Allspring High Yield Municipal Bond Fund–ETF Class (AHYM). The ETF share class structure allows investors to access established mutual fund strategies through an ETF vehicle, offering benefits such as daily portfolio transparency and potential tax efficiencies at the portfolio level. This expansion builds upon Allspring's existing suite of eight actively managed ETFs, which currently hold combined assets of $1.4 billion. The firm plans to introduce further equity and large-cap core ETF share classes later this year and into 2027.
