SIX Swiss Exchange ETF Market Report: 1st quarter 2018

April 17, 2018--In the first quarter of 2018, Swiss Exchange recorded an ETF trading turnover of CHF 31.6 billion, as announced in the latest ETF market report[pdf].

This equates to a 5% increase over the previous quarter. A total of 321'562 ETF tickets were generated in the first quarter of 2018, representing a significant increase of 25% versus the previous quarter and the highest figure since the start of 2015. This was when the Swiss National Bank discontinued the euro/Swiss franc exchange rate floor, which resulted in a sharp rise in volatility.

The positive trend in turnover of ETFs listed on SIX Swiss Exchange during the first quarter was primarily attributable to equity ETFs. These saw quarter-on-quarter growth of 26.4%, to CHF 27.49 billion.

Monday Morning Memo: Review of the European ETF Market, March 2018

April 16, 2018--Despite the promoters of ETFs in Europe enjoying net inflows for March, the assets under management in the European ETF industry (€628.3 bn) decreased, down from €632.2 bn at the end of February 2018. The decrease of €3.9 bn for March was driven by the performance of the underlying markets (-€4.7 bn), while net sales (+€0.8 bn) contributed positive results to the assets under management in the ETF segment.

With regard to the overall number of products, it was not surprising that equity funds (€451.8 bn) held the majority of the assets, followed by bond funds (€146.2 bn), commodity products (€19.3 bn), "other" funds (€6.6 bn), money market funds (€3.4 bn), mixed-asset funds (€0.7 bn), and alternative UCITS products (€0.3 bn).
