| Celebrating the winners in the European ETF industry
The results are in for this year’s popular ETF Express awards for the European ETF industry. 2019 was a record year for many but as we all sailed happily into 2020 with big anniversaries due in the ETF industry, suddenly celebration was the least thing on our minds.
Let’s take this moment to celebrate and congratulate all the winners in this year’s awards and, with the pandemic taking away our annual opportunity to network in person, let’s save up the chance to raise a glass together for later in the year.
Volatility and the breathtaking volatility experienced by money managers at the end of February and early March this year has called on the resources of the ETF industry and the best news is that it has survived where many felt it would cause greater systemic collapse. Volumes have been huge but markets have been orderly.
We have the data from Cerulli on US ETF losses over February and also a reminder from Blue Tractor’s Terry Norman, one of the firms behind the new non-transparent ETF vehicle, that market volatility underlines the need for transparency in all types of ETFs.
First Trust’s Gregg Guerin tells Philippa Aylmer that low volatility and quality factors are important indicators in down markets.

| | What a difference a day makes – 24 little trading hours By Allan Lane (pictured), Algo-Chain – During a week when the Dow Jones Industrial Average surged 11.4 per cent, the largest one day increase since 1933, this news seemed at odds with some of the more harrowing coronavirus statistics that hit the airwaves by the time US markets closed. |
