December 22, 2017--Assets in actively managed ETFs grew by $1.53 billion, or 3.5%, to $44.31 billion. The space realized a net increase of two funds, which brought the total number of
actively managed ETFs to 199.
Typically, fixed income strategies lead growth in the actively managed ETF space as again was the case in November. Sometimes that flow is consistent with the rest of the ETF industry but most of the time the passive and active segments differ from each other on what drives their respective growth. In November, overall ETF industry flows showed domestic equities adding $16 billion and international equities expanding by $12 billion, which dwarfed fixed income flows that combined to print at just
over $7 billion.
