In the United States, the assets under management of an active exchange-traded fund (ETF) exceeded $200 billion. Compared to the same period last year, it has doubled in one year. It is analyzed that the growth of Arc Invest, a leader in active ETFs, which has recently become popular with domestic investors, played a large role.
According to Bloomberg on the 10th, as of February, the total assets of active ETFs in the United States totaled $202.5 billion (about 224 trillion). In February of last year, its assets doubled from $109 billion in one year. Compared to the total market approaching $6 trillion, it accounts for only 3.5%, but it is rapidly increasing its market share.
Starting this year, $17.5 billion of funds came into active ETFs. In the US, the active ETF market is growing rapidly, with more than $55 billion in funding last year alone.
In particular, Arc Invest, the representative manager of active ETFs, is leading this trend. Arc Invest’s total assets have risen to $50 billion as of this year. During the same period last year, it was about 3.6 billion dollars. This year alone, investors were found to have put $11 billion into the ArcInvest Fund.
Arc Invest is a manager that is getting a big topic on Wall Street these days. It mainly values’disruptive innovation’ and invests in companies with various innovative technologies. As soon as the founder, CEO of Wood, founded the company in 2014, it drew attention by investing heavily in Tesla. Last year, Ark Invest’s ETFs performed 150-180%, sweeping away the top US ETF returns.
“The growth of active ETFs will not stop,” said Ryan Sullivan, vice president of global ETFs at Brown Brothers Harriman.
