Active ETFs, especially in fixed income, are surging as 10,000 Americans retire each day and demand grows for predictable, outcome-oriented income solutions for the trillions of dollars held in retirement accounts. In this episode of Inside Active, host David Cohne, mutual fund and active management analyst at Bloomberg Intelligence, speaks with Dave Abner, head of global ETFs and funds at Northern Trust Asset Management. They discuss Northern Trust’s distributing ladder ETFs and the evolving opportunity set in municipal bond ETFs, while also examining why active ETFs are hitting a “hockey stick” growth moment. The conversation explores how automation and market-structure shifts may be reshaping traditional alpha opportunities in fixed income and what that means for risk-taking and portfolio construction. The podcast was recorded on Feb. 26.
