Driven by both capital inflows and market earnings, the total asset size of US traded open index funds surpassed the 10 trillion US dollar mark for the first time this week. Investors have invested $691 billion in ETFs so far this year, and the US stock index continues to set new records. Amrita Nandakumar, president of Vident Asset Management, said the growth of ETFs was “incredible,” especially considering that the ETF ecosystem grew from $1 trillion to $10 trillion in just 14 years. She also stated, “Today, ETFs now cover almost all types of assets and investment strategies, which were previously only available to the most sophisticated institutional investors in the world. Jillian DelSignore, head of global investor distribution strategy at Nasdaq Global Index Group, said: “ETFs are becoming the preferred tool for investors, and we will continue to see new investment opportunities as the private equity market evolves and results driven strategies continue to evolve.”
