Market & ETP Overview

Latest development of ETPs

In recent years, innovative technologies such as artificial intelligence, big data and the Internet of Things have broadened, and investment products with technology themes have gained momentum in drawing investor's awareness. In response to this trend, the Taiwan Stock Exchange (“TWSE”) has newly launched a number of ETFs focusing on technology, including two ETFs targeting the domestic semiconductor industry and three electric vehicle ETFs.

Moreover, we could also expect there will be two global genomics immune ETFs in the end of this year. The new product success has led to a more vigorous ETF market. By the end of October, the total assets of the 125 ETFs listed on the TWSE have exceeded a record high of NT$794 billion. The ETF market remains highly liquid, with the average daily transaction value reaching NT$10.38 billion.
