Deep dives
Market making and its role in the ETF world
Market making is like the oil that keeps the machine running in the ETF world. Market makers provide liquidity and ensure smooth trading by constantly buying and selling ETF shares. Over the years, market makers have facilitated trillions of dollars' worth of trades, with only a small fraction resulting in trade-related issues. This reliability and efficiency are why ETFs are less prone to attacks, criticism, and concerns.
