FYI: One of the defining themes in the ETF industry over the past few years has been the rise of the institutional usage of ETFs. While institutions have always dabbled in ETFs, their usage recently transformed from seeing ETFs as short-term trading implements to seeing them as critical tools for both strategic and tactical investments.
One of the firms enabling this transition is Jane Street, one of the leading ETF liquidity providers worldwide. The firm recently conducted a survey of institutional clients to learn how they’re using ETFs in today’s markets.
