Deborah Fuhr - Why is Everyone Talking About ETFs? A $6 Trillion Industry, Uncovered Opto Sessions – Invest in the Next Big Idea

Today, I’m talking to ETF aficionado Deborah Fuhr, Founder of ETFGI, the dominant player in global ETF research. Deborah took time out of her busy schedule – typically a prolific globetrotter but grounded at home by the Coronavirus - to give us an exclusive insight into an industry that now commands a colossal $6 trillion valuation, worth just $8bn as recently as 1997.

We discuss, how Deborah’s helped to pioneer and trail blaze on behalf of these transparent, accessible products; why an industry, traditionally obsessed by fees and sky-high compensation, is now turning its mind to what was once considered, a “quirky”, alternative investment; and which new, innovative products we should keep an eye on, particularly in the Active and Thematic segments. If you’re invested in or trading ETFs this isn’t a conversation you want to miss – hope you enjoy the episode!
