New York, NY – November 25, 2025 – KraneShares, a leading provider of exchange-traded funds (ETFs) delivering access to emerging technologies and innovative global asset classes, today announced that the KraneShares Global Humanoid & Embodied Intelligence Index ETF (Nasdaq: KOID) has been added to LPL Financial’s No-Transaction-Fee (NTF) platform, expanding accessibility for LPL’s more than 22,000 financial advisors and their clients.

LPL Financial is the largest independent broker-dealer¹ and a leading provider of investment and business solutions to financial advisors across the United States. Its NTF platform allows advisors to offer a curated range of ETFs and mutual funds without incurring transaction charges, which may reduce overall costs for investors.

KOID: Investing in the Next Generation of Intelligent Machines
The KraneShares Global Humanoid & Embodied Intelligence Index ETF (KOID) provides exposure to what Wall Street analysts see as one of the most transformative technology frontiers of the coming decades: humanoid and embodied artificial intelligence. KOID seeks to provide exposure across the humanoid robotics ecosystem – spanning mechanical design, sensory perception, AI learning, and autonomous mobility.

• Broad Ecosystem Exposure: KOID invests across the “brain” (AI & semiconductors), the “body” (mechanical systems, sensors, critical materials), and the “integrators” (companies manufacturing humanoid robots)
• Global Opportunity: The fund includes firms developing humanoid robots, autonomous systems, and embodied AI platforms in the U.S., Asia, and Europe—sectors projected by Morgan Stanley to exceed $5 trillion in annual revenue by 2050.
• Early Contributors: The index methodology identifies companies positioned to benefit from the accelerating adoption of human-interactive robotics across manufacturing, logistics, healthcare, and service industries.

“Embodied intelligence is the next evolution of artificial intelligence – machines that not only think but act,” said Derek Yan, CFA, Senior Investment Strategist at KraneShares. “Through KOID, investors can gain differentiated exposure to the hardware and software driving this revolution, from humanoid robot manufacturers to the AI systems enabling them to learn and move in human environments.”
