    Assets in ETFs reached record highs in April—driven mainly by allocations to fixed income. While this may look defensive, investors are using index-linked products to reallocate risk budgets, boost yield, and seek growth opportunities.

    他们继续生长。根据ETFGI的数据,在美国上市的ETFS和ETPS(交易所交易基金和产品)中列出的资产达到了2.22万亿美元,这是一个新的纪录高。加拿大,欧洲,日本和亚太地区(前日本)上市的ETF和ETPS还达到了纪录资产水平。全球盛大的总体总额为3.32万亿美元。

    自2015年8月,ETF流动反映了股权市场波动。“这是一个风险,冒险的市场,”部门SPDR的财富管理战略总监Dan Dolan说。当它有风险时,对周期性有浓厚的兴趣;当它冒出风险时,投资者变得防守,并且有一段努力的效力。“1月和2月是野蛮的,具有重要的流出,”他说。那时,有一个强大的航班,质量巨大流入公用事业和消费钉,而消费者自由裁量和技术ETF则看到流出。一个有趣的部门是财务状况,其表现是由利率和美联储的举动驱动。“第二个关于利率上升的暗示,他们反弹,”达兰说。许多人认为,如果美联储提升速度,财务会受益。“但我们还没有看到它 - 他们下降了约20亿美元。”

    3月和4月的集会锯掉了逆转。“这些周期正在移动更快,”Dolan说。多年来,这些市场周期发生了几个月的时间。“现在,市场中的这些逆转和投资者战略的变化发生在一个月或两个月内。”

    自去年下半年抓住股票市场的波动以来,投资者的整体被吸引到较低的风险策略。“而不是想要添加到市场上加权,标准普尔3000,罗素3000或EAFE曝光,投资者正在寻找较低的股票风险的解决方案,”乔安妮·霍尔(Suergares)的机构投资战略负责人Joanne Hill说。减少整体投资组合风险的传统方式是重新分配到固定收益工具。“但投资者承认这可能不是正确的时机,”她说。

    Fixed income is coming with a lot of interest rate risk. As a result, equity products that have a good return profile with lower risk are getting the most attention, and many of those are in the smart beta, or strategic beta, category. “There has been a lot of interest in dividend-focused and low-volatility strategies,” says Hill. “There was interest along with new ETF products, mainly in categories like currency hedged, value, growth and others based on fundamentals—dividend growth, quality and momentum.” In 2016, investors are showing a preference for smart beta strategies moving with higher upside potential relative to their downside risk.

    On the fixed income side, most investors are not cutting back on allocations, and rates have continued to fall. “But investors are changing their strategies within fixed income by taking on more credit risk and shortening duration,” says Hill.

    John Hancock is a newer entrant in the ETF space, having launched a suite of smart beta multifactor ETFs in September 2015 that blend three areas of exposure: value (stocks with a lower price-to-book ratio); size (with a bias toward smaller cap stocks within the large- and mid-cap universe); and profitability (companies that demonstrate high, consistent profits). “Those are the three factors that have shown consistent outperformance to market cap-weighted benchmarks since the 1920s,” says Phil Fontana, head of product development at John Hancock Investments.

    “我们看到许多传统的活动共同基金提供商希望建立自己的ETF特许经营权,智能测试版是最受欢迎的主题,”Jane Street销售和贸易集团成员Joe Mahoney说。大多数人都在寻求现有的品牌和投资专业知识,无论是通过单一因素倾斜还是因素的组合,通过ETF。

    几乎所有都是股票产品,即指标提供商和发行人已进行交易和流动性。“我们不像传统的ETF那样接近定价和交易智能测试策略,”Mahoney说。为了使ETF交易与市场上限加权产品竞争竞争,潜在指数的设计和构建是有效的可交易的重要性。

    虽然美国的大部分美国ETF流量进入股票,但大多数欧洲ETF流动已成为固定收入。这反映了投资策略,但两架市场之间交易技术的差异也可能是一个因素。“欧洲ETF最大部分的交易是机构并在柜台(OTC)进行,”Mahoney说,通常通过电子RFQ(请求报价)系统。RFQ平台允许投资组合管理人员在竞争中同时检查多个ETF经销商。

    “这些系统在欧洲很受欢迎一段时间,目前正在开始在美国市场上牵引,创造一种访问固定收益投资组合经理习惯的ETF流动性的手段,”马霍说。由于该平台对于交易债券是普遍的,因此这种趋势可能会使固定收益ETF刺激更多的增长。
