L&G debuts Europe's first global mid-cap ETF
January 26, 2026-Legal & General has kicked off 2026 with the launch of a new exchange-traded fund (ETF) targeting global mid-cap stocks, arguing that current market offerings force investors to bundle these assets with large-cap holdings.
The L&G MSCI World Mid Cap Ucits ETF (MIDS) was listed today on the London Stock Exchange, Xetra, Borsa Italiana and SIX Swiss Exchange, with a total expense ratio (TER) of 0.29%.
According to L&G, the strategy is Europe's first global mid-cap ETF and it tracks the MSCI World Mid Cap Index Net Total Return. While many global indices
such as the MSCI World, combine large and mid-cap stocks, L&G said MIDS isolates the mid-cap segment across 23 developed markets.

ETF Market Dynamics: 2025 in Review
January 23, 2026--"With ETF assets currently hovering at 25% of mutual funds, and forecasts it can grow to 40%, this points to a promising 2026 and beyond", Eamonn O’Callaghan, group product manager at CACEIS Ireland Limited
Growth
Following the same trend as previous years, ETF assets continue to grow rapidly. In 2025 inflows peaked at >$333bn, representing significant 36.7%YTD growth.
September marked a new milestone with total ETP assets rising above the $3trn mark. Many commentators point to ETF assets doubling by 2030 with 2025 certainly viewed as a building block to reach that target.
New kids on the block
The influx of new asset managers entering the ETF space has continued with 25 new entrants over the past year. This was largely comprised of US managers looking beyond their borders to distribute product into Europe and domestic European managers stepping into the ETF space for the first time.
The flexibility and recognition of the UCITS wrapper is important in these decisions. UCITS products can be sold across Europe and there are also a number of markets outside of Europe where they can be distributed, such as Hong Kong, Singapore, Chile and Mexico.
