Global actively managed exchange-traded funds climbed to a record $1.5 trillion in assets during June, powered by $46.8 billion in monthly inflows that pushed year-to-date flows to an unprecedented $267 billion, according to ETFGI data released Tuesday.
The milestone represents a 26.7% jump in assets from $1.2 trillion at the end of 2024, according to ETFGI’s June 2025 Active ETF and ETP industry landscape insights report. The active ETF surge reflects investor appetite for professional management as markets navigate economic uncertainty, with the industry posting 63 months of consecutive net inflows.

The industry spans 3,805 actively managed ETFs from 573 providers listed on 42 exchanges across 33 countries.
Equity-focused active ETFs gathered $24.7 billion in net inflows during June, bringing year-to-date inflows to $149 billion, higher than the $89.4 billion recorded through the same period in 2024, according to ETFGI. Fixed-income active ETFs reported $20.5 billion in June inflows, pushing year-to-date flows to $102.6 billion compared to $54.5 billion in 2024.
The top 20 active ETFs by net new assets collectively gathered $19.7 billion during June, according to the report.
