NOTE

Consideration for ETF Costs and Funding

Running an exchange-traded fund (ETF) can be very costly, requiring hundreds of thousands of dollars annually to cover expenses such as exchange fees, audit fees, compliance, and asset custody. If the fee collected falls short of covering these costs, the fund manager may need to cover the shortfall personally. This financial burden leads many to seek venture capital backing. It is crucial to carefully evaluate the expenses and plan for reaching break-even to ensure long-term sustainability. Despite the decreasing costs of setting up an ETF, operational costs are still significantly higher and can easily outweigh the setup costs, leading many funds to shut down within three years due to being financially burdensome and labor-intensive.
