Barclays ishares available on the ASX - Exchange traded funds that track international indexes.
After reading an interesting thread on index funds etc on invested.com.au I just found out that that one gap in the ETF market in Australia has been filled - international index funds. In fact a whole pile of them launched at the same time - they are essentially ASX listed, aussie dollar denominated versions of funds already available in the USA and Canada
Now if only there was an SRI/Ethical index fund available to non-institutional investors.
update
The iShares funds now listed on the St George margin lending acceptable securities list with a gearing ratio of 60%.
