Institutional investors continue to embrace ETFs as a low cost, highly liquid, flexible answer to a wide range of market environments. Accordingly, in the first five years of ETF trading on Tradeweb, when volatility was relatively low and institutional investors were focused on efficiency, transparency and reducing trading costs, ETF volume on Tradeweb’s institutional platform amounted to over $650 billion (bn). In March 2020, when the world faced a global pandemic and massive volatility, U.S. ETF average daily volumes (ADV) surged 226% year-over-year (YoY), and European ETF volume climbed 242% YoY. Now, as we stare down rising inflation and geopolitical tensions, ETF volume is still climbing, with ADVs on the Tradeweb platform in Europe increasing by 24% to $3.8bn and the U.S. reaching a record high of $2.5bn in March of this year.
