Equity ETF inflows topped bond ETFs for a second week at the start of November but positive sentiment following the Eurozone deal disappeared as a turn in events left equity indices down.
ETF investors ploughed money into riskier assets last week following news of the Eurozone deal and despite recent developments, interest in high yield and corporate bond ETFs remains.
BlackRock/iShares has been vocal in its recommendations for the ETP market over the past few weeks. First it called for greater transparency and consistent regulation across the global ETF market, then it turned its focus to the European market, launching a due diligence campaign which it hopes to discuss with regulators. Finally, it told a US Senate meeting that certain ETFs should be renamed.
