ETF Surge in May: 9 New Products Reveal Key Insights on Major Player Strategies

According to reports from the finance center, May is set to see as many as 9 new funds launched, marking a new high since December last year, with active ETFs and multi-asset funds drawing significant attention.
The current fundraising wave includes a total of 4 ETF products, including two active Taiwan stock ETFs: the 00982A Active Yuanta Taiwan Strong Bull and the Active Uni-President Taiwan Growth, along with two passive overseas stock ETFs offered by Taishin Investment Trust, which are the Taishin S&P 500 and Taishin S&P Technology Select, providing various choices for investors.
In addition to ETFs, multi-asset funds are also a highlight this month, with three products starting fundraising simultaneously: the Taishin Income Navigator Multi-Asset Fund, the Yuanta India-US Strategic Multi-Asset Fund, and the Schroders Taiwan-US Dual Benefit Multi-Asset Fund, all appealing to demands for stability and growth.
The Yuanta India-US Strategic Multi-Asset Fund is noteworthy as it combines Indian stocks with US bonds, showcasing the flexibility of investment firms in capturing diverse opportunities and market trends. Wealth management experts pointed out that since March of last year, there has been an ETF product fundraising almost every month, indicating a strong market acceptance of ETF tools. The dual-launch of active Taiwan stock ETFs combines active management strategies with the liquidity advantages of ETFs, offering investors more diverse and flexible choices.
Overall, the new fund fundraising in May showcases a rich variety of products in terms of quantity and type, highlighting the market's focus on asset allocation and risk management through flexible strategies.
