I often wonder if Don Draper is real and actually works in the ETF industry because boy, can some of these managers really put a spin on how they are positioning Active ETFs.
Do women care less about salaries than men?
We are currently conducting a global ETF salary survey, which has been open for two weeks now. Looking at the engagement last week, there was one trend that immediately stood out to us. Women only represent 12% of our results so far. WOW, we thought, how can that be?
The death of ETFs may be somewhat premature
Interesting thoughts from the CEO of Schroder’s this week who predicted that the introduction of digital wallets will see the end of the fund structure, which would include ETFs. Whilst this might seem radical, we think it’s something which has merit.

Figures from Morningstar have it that the sector has grown from $200m in 2018, to north of $22bn now.
Lessons from Taylor Swift and ETFs
Did you know Taylor Swift started writing songs at 16 years of age, which means she has spent 18 years honing her craft. Vanguard launched the first index fund in 1976, which means they have had a few years to hone their craft as well.
FCUK me. A tale of ETF names
YODA, HACK, ROBO, HODL, GERM all have one thing in common. They are catchy tickers for ETFs, but is a flashy ticker enough to ensure the success of the product? Hardly.
ETFs: The sh*t is about to hit the fan
This week we released the findings of a recent survey we conducted to find out what mutual fund managers in Europe think about ETFs. It was a follow up to a survey conducted in 2021. Click to find out the results.
Making ETFs on a Commodore 64
This reminds us a bit about what the industry is doing in terms of innovation, specifically around ETF share classes of mutual funds which has been getting a lot of attention of late.
