$1.1 Trillion Was Invested In The Transition To Clean Energy In 2022 – This Company Reports Capitalizing On The Trend With Its First-In-Class Thematic ETFs

Benzinga

Thematic exchange-traded funds (ETFs) take advantage of long-term market trends, and the portfolios for these funds are often involved in industry-shaping innovations. At the start of 2023, thematic ETFs totaled $84.6 billion in assets under management (AUM). An example of a company leading the charge in clean energy market-focused ETFs is Sprott Asset Management, a subsidiary of Sprott Inc. (TSX: SII) and a global asset manager with differentiated and real asset portfolios. Sprott Asset Management has a first-mover advantage, with the only ETF to offer pure-play exposure to a wide variety of critical minerals and mining equities. Critical minerals are the natural materials required for the generation, transmission and storage of clean energy. As low carbon and clean energy infrastructure is adopted across the globe, the need for critical minerals, such as lithium, nickel, cobalt, manganese and graphite, is increasing rapidly. By 2040, one model predicts that demand for copper and rare earth elements will increase by 40%, while nickel and cobalt demand will increase by 70%, and lithium by almost 90%. A record-breaking $1.1 trillion was invested globally into low carbon energy transition in 2022, in part to meet the demand for critical minerals. However, it is estimated that the average needs to be about quadruple what is being spent now to meet net-zero targets. Sprott’s Pure-Play Thematic ETFs Sprott Inc. was founded in 1981 and has spent decades establishing itself as a global investment leader in precious metals and energy transition minerals. It has primarily been involved in upstream mineral companies, such as mining and development companies. Sprott Asset Management has been able to leverage its parent company’s network of industry relationships. Its Energy Transition Materials ETF (NASDAQ: SETM) is unique because it provides pure-play access to companies at the heart of the clean energy transition. Each security undergoes a process of rigorous selection so that every company in the portfolio is hand-picked from a wide range of possible assets. As part of the index construction process, the company looks at the 90,000+ companies with global primary security equities. It then applies a series of screening criteria, using competitive analysis and in-house research, to select the top companies for investment. It also conducts periodical rebalancing based on its weight criteria. Because of Sprott’s extensive background in the mining industry, the Energy Transition Materials ETF can target companies upstream in the mining and material acquisition process. These companies are more likely than downstream companies to be recipients of the increased global funding in the clean energy transition, according to the company. Sprott Asset Management offers a range of other ETFs in the critical minerals sector. These include its Lithium Miners ETF (NASDAQ: LITP), Junior Copper Miners ETF (NASDAQ: COPJ), Uranium Miners ETF (NYSE Arca: URNM), and Junior Uranium Miners ETF (NASDAQ: URNJ), and its Nickel Miners ETF (NASDAQ: NIKL).

Cint Partners with Publishers Clearing House for Respondent Supply

Cint

Cint (STO:CINT), a global technology leader in digital insights gathering, announces its partnership with direct-to-consumer, digital entertainment company Publishers Clearing House (PCH), representing a major innovation in the area of respondent panels and data supply. The partnership, which originated with research technology firm Lucid prior to Cint’s acquisition of Lucid, comes at a time when the value of customer data is rapidly evolving; companies across many different industries are reimagining the relationship they have with their communities. “At Publishers Clearing House, we’re all about fostering community,” said Smriti Sharma, Head of Consumer Insights at Publishers Clearing House. “And within that community, we knew there was more that we could be doing to effectively leverage the strong relationship we have with consumers. Traditional sweepstakes is our business and at the heart of that is a loyal community that we’ve grown over the years. Our work with Cint has allowed us to explore what other value we could provide to our community and how we could give our community a bigger voice in our society through their participation in surveys.” As a result of the partnership, Publishers Clearing House began to realize that its community of 40 million plus was interested in responding to surveys and offering their opinions to a company with whom they have had a longstanding relationship. Over the past two years, PCH has provided quality users and has continuously beat industry standards for survey response quality across metrics like negative reconciliations and engagement. In fact, PCH has displayed three times more engagement than the industry average. All this demonstrates the loyalty and strength of the PCH community and the quality of the consented data their community is providing researchers. The partnership with Publishers Clearing House sparked impressive categorical growth for Cint data supplier partnerships across market verticals in 2022, including mobile gaming. “We’re at a unique inflection point in the market research industry where the importance and value of the consumer’s voice is evolving at an unprecedented rate,” said Matt Hynes, Executive Vice President Global Supply at Cint. “Consumers are becoming more comfortable with consenting to share their insights, so long as they trust the organization with whom they share it. Now—as companies that curate communities face these changes —it is important to encourage them to think differently about the value and data within their communities. One goal at Cint is to encourage companies to think outside the norm, leverage data to unlock new opportunities, and provide a place where the opinions of their community members are heard.” About Cint Cint is a global provider of research technology. Our platform enables brands, researchers, academics, or anyone with a question, to connect with a global network of over 290 million high-quality and engaged respondents. Panel providers, mobile gaming apps, loyalty associations, or anyone with an online community, partner with Cint to monetise their userbase through surveys that complement the user experience. Utilizing the global reach and survey-based approach of our platform, Cint’s media measurement solutions help advertisers, publishers and media agencies measure the impact of cross-platform ad campaigns. Cint Group AB (publ), listed on Nasdaq Stockholm (STO: CINT), has a global workforce throughout EMEA, North America and APAC, including offices in Stockholm, London, New York, New Orleans, Singapore and Sydney.
