Australia’s ETF industry has seen significant growth over the past few years with the market cap reaching $46bn in March this year. This follows a market cap growth of 26% over the last 12 months(1)
To explore the development of ETFs, from a regulatory and growth perspective, the FSC is hosting a half day ETF Forum to coincide with the International Organisation of Securities Commissions (IOSCO) annual meeting being held in Sydney.
This is a rare opportunity to obtain insights on global regulation of ETFs, how ETFs are regulated in different markets and the development and trends of ETFs domestically and globally.
