Overview
Sponsored by ISS Market Intelligence

Launches of new active ETFs continue to shatter historic records. While the flexibility of ETFs has made creating new products easier than ever, achieving meaningful scale is another challenge entirely. Join ISS Market Intelligence for a discussion on what separates successful active ETFs from the broader field. Drawing on proprietary ISS MI data and surveys, Alan Hess, Vice President of U.S. Research at ISS Market Intelligence, will moderate a panel featuring Marc Barrachin, CFA, Global Head of Products at ISS Market Intelligence; Casey Hatch, Global Head of ETF Strategy & Partnerships at AllianceBernstein; and Brad Zucker, CFA, CAIA, FRM, U.S. Head of iShares Product Consulting.
Together, they will explore the product, distribution, and market factors driving growth and share practical insights on advisor demand, ETF adoption trends, and strategies asset managers can use to improve the likelihood of product success.
