Michael Kitces: Are Advisors Really Abandoning Mutual Funds?

FYI: One of the biggest trends in the investment industry is the explosive growth in variety, availability and use of ETFs. These vehicles are more tax-efficient, have more flexible trading and are typically less expensive than most mutual funds, which has made them popular tools in passive investing strategies — even among advisors who otherwise actively manage client portfolios.

And yet the overwhelming majority of advisors still use mutual funds as well, which raises the question: How exactly do advisors choose between mutual funds and ETFs?
