SSgA Looks to Bolster Bond ETF Offerings

SSgA partners with Nuveen on several ETFs, including municipal bond funds, and the firm’s actively managed SPDR Blackstone/GSO Senior Loan ETF (NYSEArca: SRLN) is a collaboration with private equity giant Blackstone. SRLN has acquired over $635 in assets in just two years on the market.

Over the past month, 10-year Treasury yields have fallen 13.4%, a slide that has helped fixed income ETFs maintain an already torrid pace of asset-gathering. Fixed income ETFs had net inflows of $35.7 billion including almost $19 billion into investment grade and high yield ETFs.  With this strong start to the year, fixed income ETFs are on track for another record year, according to BlackRock.
