Record Numbers, Increasing Intricacy Define ETPs on Eve of NYSSA Forum

The New York Society of Security Analysts (NYSSA) will examine arguably the fastest-growing and most dynamic asset class on the market today with its ETP Trading and Investing Forum on Wednesday, November 19. 

More than 155 exchange-traded products (ETPs) ranging from traditional index-tracking vehicles to actively managed exchange-traded funds (ETFs) have launched in 2014, attracting retail investors eager for low-cost 401(k) plan solutions as well as institutions seeking overlay for their equity portfolios.

Featuring a series of panel discussions also covering exchange-traded notes (ETNs) and closed-end funds (CEFs), NYSSA’s ETP Trading and Investing Forum will assess the trends and challenges in allocating to the rapidly evolving $2 trillion ETP industry. 

The forum will take place from 9 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. at the NYSSA Conference Center on the 10th floor of 1540 Broadway in New York and is open to Society members as well as non-members and students.  A complementary networking reception will immediately follow.  To attend, visit the NYSSA website.
