ETFs first arrived on the US market in 1993. Actively managed ETFs did not arrive until 15 years later in 2008. Actively managed ETFs will celebrate their second birthday later this week on March 25, 2010.
As of today, there have been a total of 27 actively managed ETFs launched in the US. The first one was Bear Stearns Current Yield (former ticker YYY), which also has the dubious distinction of being the first actively managed ETF to be delisted, barely six months after its launch.
Later this week on March 24, WisdomTree US Short-Term Government Income (USY) will become the second actively managed ETF to be delisted. Unless there are some additional launches this week, there will be a total of 25 actively managed ETFs trading on Thursday for the two-year industry birthday celebration.
So far, 2008 saw the most launches of actively managed ETFs with 14 new funds. Looking at the data by type of fund reveals that equity and currency strategies have been the most popular with nine each. There have been seven actively managed bond ETFs and two multi-asset funds.
The table below lists all 27 actively managed ETFs sorted by launch date.
