On June 23rd, Hubbis will host a virtual Digital Dialogue panel discussion on the global USD10 trillion-plus Exchange Traded Fund (ETF) market and the rising prominence of ETFs in the wealth management community in Asia. For this discussion, the panel will focus on how ETFs can be used as part of smart and robust portfolio formation by Asia’s private investors, and how the private banks and EAMs can help their clients diversify their portfolios using ETFs.
The creators and proponents of ETFs have increasingly been emphasising the key attributes of ETFs, including the low entry and exit costs, their liquidity and ease of trading (they are quoted on the market like stocks and not ‘priced’ only once a day like mutual funds). They have been highlighting their role in core/satellite portfolio formation, as well as their value in offering investors smart beta and targeted thematic exposures through specifically tailored composition around selected indices and sub-sectors. In short, the right blend of ETFs can allow private investors to assemble a diverse, liquid and interesting sets of exposures across the universe of listed equities and also public-market fixed income. And the ETF market also encompasses the growing inclination to invest in alternative assets, including metals, commodities, and currencies.
The panel will zoom in on how the wealth community can help investors invest in specific trends that can be captured through tailored ETFs, such as for example China’s technology sector, global medical and healthcare, or perhaps country-specific ETFs such as Vietnam. They will analyse how ETFs can also help investors easily capture the global trends towards ESG and sustainability.
The discussion will naturally be directed towards the Asian wealth management community, to debate where such ETFs fit into private client portfolios in the region, and how and why those clients should build their allocations. And the panel will discuss where these investors most need considerable guidance and support, faced as they are with an enormous array of choices – there were an estimated roughly 8600 ETFs in 2021 representing some USD10 trillion of assets, according to Statista.
