Advisors Increase Use of Active ETFs, Decrease Mutual Fund Allocation
August 22, 2023--A new Cogent Syndicated report from Escalent shows fee-conscious advisors are increasingly turning to Exchange-Traded Funds (ETFs) and decreasing their allocations to mutual funds. The proportion of advisors selling ETFs reaches an all-time high at 91%, nearly equivalent to the percentage of advisors tapping mutual funds (94%).
The study also finds a large percentage of ETF users plan to increase their use of active ETFs with 48% planning to grow their use in client portfolios over the next year. On the other hand, 43% of mutual fund producers plan to decrease their mutual fund use over the next two years.
"After several bank collapses, fear of an economic downturn and one of the worst years in the market, advisors and their clients continue to feel uneasy with many worrying economic conditions will worsen," said Meredith Lloyd Rice, vice president in Escalent's Cogent Syndicated division. "To make the dollar go further, advisors are increasingly turning to ETFs and decreasing allocations to mutual funds to reduce fees and potentially make higher earnings."
