Global Financial Markets Institute»Exchange Traded Funds – Advanced

Exchange Traded Funds – Advanced

This course examines advanced concepts in ETFs. ETFs as an asset class have grown significantly in the last decade. The proliferation in the number of ETFs has led to many complex issues arising in the space. The first two sections of the class examine different types of ETFs such as leveraged ETFs, fixed income ETFs, international ETFs, industry ETFs, and factor-model ETFs. The selection process for assets included in these ETFs is discussed, and the risks behind these ETFs are examined. In the second half of the class, we examine ETFs and their use by industry. It addresses issues including how external asset management clients use ETFs and what are they looking for when considering ETFs, the arbitrage opportunities in the ETF space, how hedge funds use ETFs, the process and selection criteria issues hedge funds have around ETFs, hedge fund replication in ETF products from firms like Goldman Sachs, and how active management products like the new NextShares ETFs are changing the market.
