Celebrating ETF growth in India

We have been showing off our editorial global strength in recent weeks and this week have brought you a piece on the growing ETF industry in India. Ketaan Ram Kataria writes that India’s ETF market has recorded a significant expansion, driven by rising investor awareness, growing institutional interest and supportive regulatory initiatives.
Retail participation has climbed steadily — the number of retail ETF portfolios rose from 1.84 million in 2020 to more than 5.2 million by end-2024, Ram Kataria writes.
The growth of neobroker and roboadviser offerings, based on ETFs has revealed fresh sources of inflows for ETFs around the world from Europe, to Japan to India. This subject came up in our panel at IMPower Fund Forum, where I chaired a lively session with contributions from Equiduct’s Wail Azizi, Jan Jursa from Finax, Timo Slametschka from Scalable Capital and Gerry Perez from Interactive Brokers. My full report on the conference and my other panels can be found here.
Keeping it global, nominations are now open for ETF service providers operating in Tokyo for the inaugural ETF Express Japanese ETF awards.
