The following data is derived from trading activity on the Tradeweb Markets institutional European- and U.S.-listed ETF platforms.

EUROPEAN-LISTED ETFs       

Total traded volume

Trading activity on the Tradeweb European ETF marketplace reached EUR 53.5 billion in November, while the proportion of transactions processed via Tradeweb’s Automated Intelligent Execution (AiEX) tool was 83.6%.

Adam Gould, head of equities at Tradeweb, said: “Institutional ETF volumes on our European marketplace this November were the third highest for the year so far. We also saw a record proportion of volume traded through AiEX, reaching 22.3% of the overall platform flow, as clients continue to see the value in automating larger size tickets to implement their trading strategies and boost their competitive position.”

Volume breakdown

In November, commodities was the only ETF asset class where ‘sells’ exceeded ‘buys’ by eighteen percentage points, while equities and fixed income saw net buying. Trading activity in equity-based ETFs rose to 58% of the total traded volume from 54% in the month prior. Similarly to October, North American Equities was the most heavily-traded ETF category, with EUR 11.6 billion in total notional volume.
