In the context of the reform of public offering rates, innovative indices and innovative products have brought new development opportunities for indexed investment, coupled with the unsatisfactory performance of the excess return of active equity products this year, indexed products represented by ETF products are becoming more and more concerned by investors, and the market trading activity is also increasing.

Wind statistics show that as of the end of the third quarter of this year, excluding ETF connection**, the size of the market-wide non-currency index** (including over-the-counter ordinary index**, ETFs and index LOF) increased from 21,507 at the end of last year3.6 billion yuan bucked the trend and increased to 251882.8 billion yuan, an increase of 3680 during the year9.2 billion yuan, an increase of 1711%。

In this regard, some market participants believe that the multiple advantages of the ETF itself are the key factors that detonate the ETF. First of all, ETF products have the advantages of low fees and convenient on-exchange transactions. Secondly, as a passive product, ETF products have a stable and clear investment style, transparent positions, and rich varieties, which are suitable for use as a large-scale asset allocation tool. Finally, it has more advantages in terms of scale and capacity, which can meet the allocation needs of large-scale funds.
