ETFs jump to two-thirds of all Taiwan fund assets

February 17, 2025-Growth sparks regulatory concerns about growing imbalance between passive and active investing
The rising dominance of the exchange traded funds sector in Taiwan's asset management market is continuing at pace despite regulatory calls to halt the growing imbalance between passive and active investing.

Assets in Taiwan's locally listed ETFs surged by 55 per cent in 2024 to reach $195.88bn and now account for 66.1 per cent of all onshore public funds industry assets, according to data from Keystone Intelligence.

At the end of 2023 the local ETF sector had a 56.7 per cent market share of assets, while in 2018 ETF assets stood at just 27.5 per cent of the total market.
