In recent years, businesses related to space development have been growing rapidly around the world. Many private companies have entered the space industry, which was previously led by governments, such as in satellite launches and space exploration. Along with this, interest among investors in related companies, known as "space tech," is increasing.
Against this backdrop, financial products that allow investment in overseas space-related companies are attracting attention in the Japanese securities market. One such product is the exchange-traded fund (ETF) called "GX Space Tech Top 10 (Ex-Japan)." This product is structured to invest in 10 leading companies engaged in space business outside of Japan.
This ETF has the feature of being easy for individual investors to invest in, as it allows them to purchase a basket of companies with technologies related to space development.

Space business plays an important role even in our daily lives, such as in the communication technologies and meteorological observations that support our society. Many people are watching with interest to see how space-related technologies will evolve and what impact they will have on our lives in the future.
