Nearly one quarter of ETF issuers at least doubled their AUM in the last twelve months. And seven of those fast growers now have more than $1 billion each.

18 of the 78 ETF issuers saw their AUM rise by at least 100 percent year-over-year, reports Cinthia Murphy of ETF.com. The fastest growing ETF shop, Columbia Threadneedle, increased its AUM 7600 percent to $1.004 billion, thanks largely to its acquisition last year of Emerging Global Advisors.

The biggest of these fast-growing ETF shops, ETF.com notes, is Northern Trust. AUM in its FlexShares ETF business rose 100 percent to $13.131 billion, making it three times bigger than any other shop on the list.

Other fast-growing ETF shops with at least $1 billion in AUM include: Credit Suisse, $3.608 billion, up 157 percent; Goldman Sachs, $3.24 billion, up 191 percent; Exchange Traded Concepts, $2.515 billion, up 717 percent; OppenheimerFunds, $1.955 billion, up 113 percent; and Victory, $1.2 billion, up 213 percent.
