‘Sells’ in commodity-based ETFs exceeded ‘buys’ for the second successive month, this time by 22 percentage points. Conversely, both equity and fixed income ETFs saw net buying in September. North America Equities was once again the most actively-traded category, with EUR 8.2 billion in traded volume mostly attributed to ‘buys’.
Adam Gould, head of equities at Tradeweb, said: “September proved to be a solid month for our European ETF platform, both in terms of traded volume and number of trades. Most ETF categories saw net buying during the month, with Precious Metals and Europe Equities the most notable exceptions. Emerging Markets Bond ETFs were also mainly sold and saw strong traded volume of just over EUR 3.7 billion.”

There were four products offering investor exposure to Emerging Markets debt among September’s ten most heavily-traded ETFs. However, the U.S. Equity-focused iShares Core S&P 500 UCITS ETF held on to the top spot for the second consecutive month.
