Tuesday, February 17, 2009 A Study Predicts ETF Assets to Cross the Trillion Mark in Two Years ETF providers will be the beneficiaries of a shift in the way money is invested, according to a new Strategic Insight study picked up by Reuters. The study found that that an increase in the use of asset allocation models and fee-for-service investment advice will drive the amount of cash invested in ETFs beyond the $1 trillion mark within two years. "ETFs are benefiting from the trend of the investment community moving into a compensation model that favors fees for advice instead of point-of-sale commissions," Loren Fox, Strategic Insight senior research analyst and the study's lead writer, told Reuters. As of the end of last year, ETFs had $725 billion in AUM globally. Printed from: MFWire.com/story.asp?s=20772 Copyright 2009, InvestmentWires, Inc. All Rights Reserved |
