The U.S. ETF industry is pushing back against the Securities and Exchange Commission's (SEC) broad review of "novel ETFs."
ETF professionals argue an overly wide definition could slow product launches and undermine one of the market's biggest advantages, even as increasingly complex funds test the boundaries of the traditional ETF structure, per a Reuters report.
The SEC opened the review in June after delaying a wave of proposed prediction-market ETFs. Its request covers ETFs that invest in innovative ***** et classes or use unconventional strategies and asks whether existing rules adequately address investor protection, market integrity, and the registration process.
More than 20 industry participants submitted comments around the Aug. 31 deadline, with the docket showing submissions from Charles Schwab, Franklin Templeton, Jane Street, Cboe Global Markets, Grayscale Investments, 21Shares, Andreessen Horowitz and Kalshi.
