Korean ETF Market Surpasses 200 Trillion Won, Accelerating Growth
The Korean Exchange Traded Fund (ETF) market has surpassed 200 trillion won in net assets, marking a trend of rapid growth. This is driven by the low management fees, the benefits of diversified investments, and its appeal as an attractive investment option for retirement accounts. Particularly, individual investors have increased their holdings by over 10 trillion won this year, highlighting their growing market share. ETFs attract investors with their daily transparency of holdings and ability to trade like stocks in real time.
The government's recent enthusiasm to invigorate the capital market has stimulated investment inflows, as evidenced by the notable 148 billion won influx into the 'TIGER Holdings ETF'. The ETF market is expected to exceed 1000 offerings within the year due to these long-term investment inflows. Despite a lackluster performance in the stock market last year, dividends from listed companies surged by about 10% to reach 32.29 trillion won.
Continuous launches of new products provide diverse assets and strategies, contributing to qualitative market growth. Samsung Asset Management holds the top market share, followed by Mirae Asset Global Investments. The market is anticipated to maintain its growth trajectory, leveraging the use of retirement accounts and aligning with global market trends.
