FYI: The world is awash with exchange-traded funds, but not all succeed in appealing to investors. Some attract billions of dollars, and some barely anything.
So, what determines a fund’s success?
The differences between the winners and the also-rans can sometimes be subtle—making the whole process of launching ETFs seem like playing the lottery.
