According to Odaily, Bloomberg Senior ETF Analyst Eric Balchunas revealed on the X platform that global ETF flows have reached $911 billion so far this year. This figure is almost certain to surpass the annual record of $1.2 trillion, largely due to increased contributions from countries outside the United States. These countries now account for nearly 40% of the total, compared to 25% in 2021. Additionally, a record number of 1,121 ETFs have been launched globally this year.
Balchunas also shared data indicating significant inflows into specific ETFs. BlackRock's IBIT has seen inflows of approximately $20.48 billion, while FBTC has attracted around $9.8 billion. This surge in ETF activity highlights the growing global interest and investment in these financial instruments.
