Inflows To Active ETFs Emerge

The funds industry will see assets in the ETF sector reach $30 trillion in the next 10 years, helped by greater inflows to active ETFs and by traditional asset managers entering the market, research from the asset servicing division of Brown Brothers Harriman (BBH) bank indicates. The emergence of active products coincides with other factors ‒ such as the ending of ETF trading commissions by a number of platforms – to drive assets upwards from around $10 trillion at present. Growth in the sector is despite data showing a reduction in the number of investors who said they would increase ETF holdings in the coming year.
