Active ETFs with more flexibility to navigate volatility also benefitted at the expense of passive exposures
US President Donald Trump announced a wave of new tariffs on 2 April, which he branded ‘Liberation Day’, arguing they would help boost the US economy. At this stage, uncertainty around trade policy, global growth, and inflation remains very high. It is impossible to predict exactly when markets will start to stabilise, and this has triggered a huge increase in volatility across financial markets globally. This uncertainty is highlighted by the Cboe Volatility Index (VIX), which recently closed at its highest level since April 2020, during the early months of the Covid-19 pandemic.

ESMA assesses the risks posed by the use of leverage in the fund sector
April 24, 2025-The European Securities and Markets Authority (ESMA), the EU's financial markets regulator and supervisor, today publishes its annual risk assessment of leveraged alternative investment funds (AIFs) and its first analysis on risks in UCITS using the absolute Value-at-Risk (VaR) approach.
Both articles represent ESMA's work to identify highly leveraged funds in the EU investment sector and assess their potential systemic relevance.
While most EU investment funds make limited use of leverage, a subset of AIFs are substantially leveraged, and a group UCITS using the absolute VaR approach has very high levels of gross leverage.
Risk assessment of leveraged AIFs shows that hedge funds display the highest levels of leverage, even though they represent a small part of the EU fund industry.

Europe and Central Asia: Accelerate Growth through Entrepreneurship, Technology Adoption, and Innovation
April 23, 2025—Economic growth in the developing economies of the Europe and Central Asia region is likely to slow, says the World Bank's Economic Update for the region, released today. Regional growth is now expected at 2.5% in 2025-26 owing to weaker external demand and a slowdown in Russia.
In 2024, growth across the region stabilized at 3.6% buoyed by private consumption and supported by robust real wage increases, higher remittances, and stepped-up consumer borrowing, all of which offset weaker external demand due to low growth in the European Union.
