Core Viewpoint - The trend of index-based allocation in public FOFs (Fund of Funds) is becoming increasingly prominent, with a significant preference for ETFs (Exchange-Traded Funds) over actively managed funds [1][4][7]. Group 1: FOF Holdings and Trends - As of October 25, 2023, many FOFs have shifted their top holdings to ETFs, with 9 out of 10 top funds in some cases being ETFs, indicating a clear trend towards index-based investment strategies [1][3]. - The report highlights that 90.73% of public FOFs are expected to allocate to ETFs by the end of 2024, with approximately 9.2% of FOF holdings being ETFs by mid-2025 [4][6]. - Notably, among the 37 FOFs that disclosed their third-quarter reports, 11 had ETFs as their largest holding, with 5 of these ETFs having a holding value exceeding 10% of the fund's net asset value [4]. Group 2: Product Innovation and Demand - In response to strong demand, new products such as multi-asset allocation FOFs and ETF-FOFs are being introduced, reflecting the evolving landscape of fund offerings [2][5]. - The emergence of multi-asset FOFs, which allow for a mix of active and passive investments, is evident, with recent launches indicating a growing trend towards diversified investment strategies [5][6]. - The ETF-FOF products are designed to allocate over 80% of their non-cash assets to ETFs, showcasing a significant shift towards passive investment strategies [5][6]. Group 3: Managerial Challenges and Opportunities - The proliferation of index funds presents both opportunities and challenges for fund managers, as they must enhance their asset allocation capabilities to navigate a more complex investment landscape [7][8]. - Fund managers are increasingly focusing on diverse asset classes, including equities, fixed income, commodities, and overseas investments, to create optimal portfolios that outperform traditional strategies [7]. - However, challenges such as market volatility and liquidity issues in certain ETFs may complicate asset rotation strategies, necessitating innovative approaches to maintain competitive advantages [8].
