Friday, December 11, 2015 Which ETF Players Are Growing Fastest? In absolute terms, BlackRock's iShares [profile] is winning the 2015 ETF race. Yet proportional growth figures tell a different story.
On an absolute basis, WisdomTree's [profile] ETF AUM rose about $21 billion. Put another way, that's a 54-percent AUM jump, from $39 billion to about $60 billion. Next, proportionately, is Goldman Sachs [profile], whose ETP assets rose from about $170 million to nearly $550 million so far this year, a 218-percent increase. In absolute terms, though, a $380-million ETF AUM increase seems quite modest. Deutsche Bank [profile], per ETF.com's numbers, is growing even faster proportionately, seeing its AUM jump 425 percent. It entered 2015 with less than $4.5 billion in total ETF AUM and now has more than $21.7 billion. That translates ito a $17.2-billion AUM increase. By comparison, WisdomTree started the year with more than eight times Deutsche's ETF AUM, yet Deutsche managed to add nearly 82 percent of what WisdomTree added.
