Top 10 ETF issuers in the EMEA area by AUM

The ETF industry in the EMEA region (Europe, Middle East and Africa) has experienced strong and sustained growth over the past decade, driven by increasing demand for transparent, low-cost investment vehicles and broader access to global markets. As institutional and retail investors continue to incorporate passive strategies into their portfolios, ETFs have become a central component of modern asset allocation across the region.

Within this rapidly expanding ecosystem, a relatively small number of asset managers dominate the market. The largest ETF issuers manage hundreds of billions of dollars in assets and offer extensive product ranges covering equities, fixed income, commodities and thematic exposures.
