“Advisors have been turning to actively managed ETFs in 2023,” said Todd Rosenbluth, head of research at VettaFi. “Given the market volatility, they have sought more nimble strategies. It’s great to see Natixis bring more active products to market.”
Natixis takes a concentrated approach with equities, according to Nick Elward, head of institutional product and ETFs. At Exchange 2023, Elward told VettaFi that interest in active ETFs has grown. Many active mutual fund managers have thrown their hats into the ETF ring, driving up investor interest.
