SG Market Updates

- In 2021, the combined AUM of SGX-listed ETFs increased from S$8.53 billion to S$12.53 billion, with 22 ETFs recording AUM growth since the end of 2020, while five ETF/ETP debutants that track Singapore Equites, S-REITs, APAC REITs and China Equities ended the year with ~S$300 million in combined AUM.
- In addition surge in SGX-listed ETF inflows in 2021, the ETF flows underlined increased interest by institutional investors in Asia Fixed Income markets, particularly in the Asia High Yield Corporate Bonds and China Gov RMB Bonds, which maintained respective 12M Gross Div. Yields of 4.2% and 2.8% at the end of 2021.
- The demand for yield also extended to four of the five SGX-listed ETFs that track REIT Indices ranking among the five ETFs that recorded the highest 12M Gross Div. Yields in 2021. The best performing SGX-listed ETF of 2021, which tracks Vietnam Equities also attracted inflows in 2021, albeit on a lesser scale than the Asia Fixed Income and REIT ETFs.
With 2021, marking 20 years since ETFs were listed on SGX, the combined AUM of SGX-listed ETFs surged close to 50% over the year with the product offering also expanding from 30 ETFs to 35 ETFs.

ETFs are investment funds listed and traded intraday on a stock exchange. The majority aim to track the performance of an index and provide access to a wide variety of markets and asset classes, including local stocks, international securities, bonds, commodities or money markets. Each ETF gives investors access to the performance of the asset which comprises of the underlying index. Investing in the ETF is also less costly if one were to build a similar portfolio by buying the individual stocks. These portfolio products also provide exposure to international markets and asset classes that may be inaccessible to individual investors.
