How active ETFs are unlocking innovation and opportunity for investors
July 22, 2024--KEY TAKEAWAYS
Active ETFs are an increasingly important part of investor toolkits, alongside mutual funds, closed-end funds (including private markets), separately managed accounts, and index ETFs.

The Exchange-Traded Fund (ETF) industry has dramatically transformed in the past 30 years, progressively growing in both assets under management and in the variety of ETFs available to investors. From just a handful of U.S.-based funds in 1993 to over 13,000 globally currently, ETFs have evolved to provide transparent access to a broad range of asset classes, sectors, and geographies.2
