Global actively managed ETF assets and annual net inflows both hit record highs.

BlockBeats news, September 29 — A report recently released by ETFGI, an independent ETF research and consulting firm, shows that as of the end of August 2026, global actively managed ETF assets reached $2.72 trillion, with net inflows of $663.6 billion, both hitting record highs.

In terms of growth, global actively managed ETF assets have increased 42.6% year-to-date, highlighting sustained investor demand for such products. ETFGI noted that a large portion of the inflows can be attributed to the top 20 ETFs/ETPs by net new assets, which collectively drew $25.39 billion in August.

The top three on the list are: Avantis U.S. Large Cap Value ETF, with monthly net inflows of $3.41 billion; Yinhua Rili ETF, with monthly net inflows of $2.66 billion; and ProShares GENIUS Money Market ETF, with monthly net inflows of $2.145 billion. (China Fund News)
