Steady growth in investor interest in the liquidity and tax advantages offered by ETFs, together with an influx of innovative products, underpin the growth, issuers and analysts say. Nor has recent market turbulence dented demand for the riskiest kind of new products, even as it has whetted investor interest in "buffer" ETFs that use options to guard against downside risk.
In the week since it launched, the ETF has attracted more than $50 million of inflows, according to VettaFi, while also becoming the most volatile ETF on the market, data from Interactive Brokers shows."We're seeing a strong pace of new products launching that offer some kind of focus on income or downside protection" using options, said John Hooson, managing director of ETF services at Brown Brothers Harriman.
Another trend is to launch products that form part of the same family or suite as existing successful ETFs, Hooson noted. On Tuesday, for instance, Pacer ETFs rolled out the latest addition to its line of income-based ETFs. The Pacer Nasdaq 100 Top 50 CashCows aims to deliver exposure to the 50 stocks in the Nasdaq index with the highest free-cash-flow margins, said Sean O'Hara, president of Pacer ETFs. Next: a Nasdaq 100 dividend ETF.
