The following data is derived from trading activity on the Tradeweb Markets institutional European- and U.S.-listed ETF platforms.

European-Listed ETFs

Total traded volume

Throughout June, trading activity on the Tradeweb European ETF marketplace reached EUR 55.1 billion, while the proportion of transactions processed via Tradeweb’s Automated Intelligent Execution (AiEX) tool was 82.8%.

Adam Gould, head of equities at Tradeweb, said: “June was another extremely turbulent month for equities. Elevated oil prices, lack of clarity from the Fed and some key earnings misses were a few of the many factors that contributed to the broad-based sell off. During turbulent periods, we continue to see clients use ETFs as a valuable tool to transfer risk and tactically position portfolios.”

All asset classes saw net selling for the second consecutive month. Activity in commodity ETFs, where ‘sells’ outstripped ‘buys’ by 34 percentage points, increased to 8% of the total platform flow in June. North America Equities was the most actively-traded category, with nearly EUR 11.8 billion in total notional volume.2022June_ETFupdate_EUCharts.jpg
