Description
You've probably heard of Exchange Traded Funds (ETFs) before. You may even own shares in some. But do you actually know what they are? How are they created? How do they work? Who maintains liquid markets in them? Why would you invest in one in the first place? And why has this marketplace exploded to a size of $11-12 trillion across 10,000+ funds?
We are joined by longtime friend Brian Weinstein, head of global markets at MSIM, to understand the mechanics, philosophy, and inner workings of the world of ETFs.
