Lyxor Asset Management, a subsidiary of the French bank Société Générale, is on Thursday listing the first commodity exchange traded funds (ETFs) on the London Stock Exchange.

It is launching one fund – the Lyxor ETF Commodities CRB – which offers exposure to all commodity types, as well as a non-energy fund. Both are based on the Reuters/Jefferies CRB index, the oldest commodities futures index in the world.
