ISE removes daily disclosure requirement for Actively-Managed ETFs listed on ISE
November 19, 2014--The Irish Stock Exchange (the "ISE") has, with immediate effect,
removed the requirement to provide daily disclosure of the holdings
of actively managed ETFs listed on the ISE.
This change comes as actively-managed ETFs increase in popularity
and is, in part, due to the evolution of the regulatory environment in
which they operate. While actively-managed ETF assets still
represent a small proportion of total ETF assets under management,
considerable growth in this area is predicted by industry participants.
As the requirements imposed on actively managed ETFs in Europe are primarily driven by stock exchange requirements rather than regulations this development at the ISE brings the ISE in line with many other European exchanges.
