Monthly ETP launch report
Asia newly listed ETFs dominate inflows
Our first monthly report highlighting new fund launches in January and asset growth in funds launched in the final
month of last year
 January saw 42 new fund launches, up significantly from the 28 funds launched in December
 North American listed funds regained the regional crown with 27 newly listed funds but the majority of
newly launched funds had global exposure
 Asian funds topped the December performance table with three of the top four newly launched funds
having recorded the largest inflows in January
January new listings
December Flows
The first few weeks of the year were dominated by
emerging market upheaval which saw investors sell
emerging market funds and flee developing country
exposure at a record rate. The timing of this seems
to have come at an unfortunate time for ETF issuers
as January saw nine newly launched funds exposed
to emerging markets.
December proved to be a slow month for fund
launches with only 28 funds launching over the
month. With the exclusions of the four iShares US
focused Japanese Depositary Receipts, these newly
launched funds managed to attract $577m of assets
in January.
The two broad emerging market equity funds
launched in January aim to set themselves apart
from the existing crop of funds by filtering index
constituents to pick “quality” and “high dividend”
paying shares. Whether this theme hits a note with
investors remains to be seen, but the Quality MSCI
index (QEM) has outperformed the overall Emerging
Market index year to date. The asset flows into this
fund will be revisited in next month’s piece.
Another trend noticed in January’s newly launched
funds is the thirst for global diversification by North
American investors. This is seen by the fact that a
majority of the 27 listed Americas funds have non
North American exposure.
Asia topped the December fund performance and it
comes as no surprise that these funds have taken
the largest share of flows in the last four weeks at
$287m. These inflows were mainly concentrated
towards the three funds which collectively had
$290m if inflows led by the South Korea bond
exposed Ariang Short Term Bond ETF which saw
$152m of inflows in December.
Interestingly, Chinese ETF investors reduced their
exposure to US focused shares with the Bosera
S&P 500 fund seeing nearly $18m of outflows, a
quarter of the assets it had at the start of the year.
Further afield, Lyxors UCIT EUROSTOXX Banks
saw $147m of inflows, the only non-Asian fund to
crack the top four largest fund inflows for last
month’s crop of listings.
