The review covers ETFs tied to new asset classes and investment strategies, with the SEC framing it against growth from $4T in 2019 to more than $12T by the end of 2025.
The SEC (U.S. securities regulator) has opened a 60-day public comment period on exchange-traded funds targeting novel asset classes and investment strategies. The move comes as the ETF market has expanded sharply, growing from $4 trillion in 2019 to more than $12 trillion by the end of 2025. The consultation signals the regulator is seeking input on how newer ETF structures and exposures should be assessed as the market broadens beyond more established products.
