ALFI: Strong growth in ETFs in Luxembourg

10 September 2015

Luxembourg notably continues to attract ETFs sold on an international basis, gathering around 35% of the total authorisations in Europe for cross-border distribution of ETFs.

The ALFI has set out ten reasons for managers to make Luxembourg their ETF domicile. Reasons include:
Many investors find ETFs attractive as they’re listed on stock exchanges and can be traded easily, and offer investors diversification, liquidity and transparency, all at a low cost.
 
ALFI expects to see continued growth and further innovation when it comes to this kind of products, such as the development of ETFs investing in China or in RMB, in Islamic finance, or in socially responsible projects. Luxembourg is already ideally placed to domicile these funds.
