SMSF Sector Getting Closer to ETFs

By: Alan Preston   •   11 September, 2015

SMSF amassed assetsAn article on the website SMSF Adviser states that nearly $300 million has flown into the Exchange-traded Funds in the month of August and a smart percentage has been contributed by the SMSF sector. SMSF trustees as well as retirees are making a fair shout for the exchange-traded funds.

Income stream without involving risk

Those investing in the SMSF sector are not averse to seeking an income stream for themselves. Yet, they do not want to get too much involved with the uncertainty of the market. ETF gives them a nice alternative, keeping these factors in mind.

Bulk trading in August

ETF gives a nice warp zone, easing off stress of market volatility. $2.3 billion traded in the month of August is ample proof of investors’ inclination towards the Exchange-traded funds.

ETF aiding in portfolio diversification

On their part, the ETFs are also taking a good number of steps to lure investors. To begin, they are helping diversify exposure by bringing in more European and Asian equities in the mix. Now, SMSF investors have a nice range to choose from; keeping an eye on their personal risk taking capacity and investment strategy objectives.

If the regulators approve, the ETF market may see many new entries by the time the present year draws to a close.
