GREENWICH, Conn.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--

Recon Capital, the issuer behind the Recon Capital Nasdaq 100 Covered Call ETF and the Recon Capital DAX Germany ETF, has expanded its suite of products with the launch of the Recon Capital FTSE 100 ETF, the only U.S.-listed ETF benchmarked to the FTSE 100. The fund is slated to be available for trading on April 29, 2015.

Coming on the heels of the FTSE 100's 30th anniversary, the Recon Capital FTSE 100 ETF UK is designed to give U.S. investors direct access to the most well-capitalized companies listed on the London Stock Exchange. The index consists of innovative and established companies in each of their respective sectors, including GlaxoSmithKline, Barclays, HSBC, Burberry and Rolls-Royce, as of March 31, 2015.

"With the arrival of the Recon Capital FTSE 100 ETF, investors now have an expanded ability to trade ETFs benchmarked to Britain's flagship index. Investors around the world now have the opportunity to trade the FTSE 100 and its constituents in the U.S., alongside similar products already listed in Europe and Asia," says Recon Capital Partners Managing Partner Kevin Kelly. "This ETF continues our firm's objective to provide U.S. investors with exposure to benchmark indices that are aligned with the strong economies in Europe and joins its sister product, the Recon Capital DAX Germany ETF (DAX). By utilizing UK and DAX, American investors can tap into the strongest economies in Europe and the underlying blue chip companies domiciled in Britain and in Germany."

Recon Capital partnered with FTSE and the London Stock Exchange to license its flagship index. The ETF will have an initial expense ratio of 45 bps.

Mark Makepeace, London Stock Exchange Group Director of Information Services & Chief Executive of FTSE Group, says, "Our ETF licensing business continues to expand across North America and this new product launch represents a great example of working across borders to create new opportunities. We are delighted that ETFs linked to the FTSE 100 Index can now trade continuously, and very pleased to work with Recon Capital Partners to help bring this to market."
