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."

August 18, 2023--Global X ETFs, the New York-based provider of exchange-traded funds (ETFs), today announced the launch of two actively managed emerging market funds: The Global X Brazil Active ETF (BRAZ) and the Global X India Active ETF (NDIA).
Brazil and India represent two of the largest and most dynamic emerging markets.
Brazil boasts a skilled workforce, abundant natural resources, and a quickly growing consumer market. With a recent pivot from its central banki and a new fiscal reform package from the government, Brazil is seen as one of the best cyclical opportunities on the map.
On the other side of the globe, growth in India continues to benefit from favorable structural reforms, strong government spending, and attractive labor costs. With attractive demographics, a strong education system, and a democratic governance system, we believe India represents one of the top structural opportunities in the world. Investors seeking strong long-term global growth prospects may consider increasing their exposure to these two markets as they move from asset-heavy, low return business models into more dynamic sectors.
