Wavelength Podcast Episode 134: All About ETFs
Josephine Gallagher and Anthony Malakian examine the ETF market to see how tech and data are changing the space.
This week, Josephine Gallagher, European reporter for Waters, calls in from London to talk with Anthony about the exchange-traded funds (ETF) marketplace. After speaking with experts from Goldman Sachs Asset Management, Vanguard, State Street Global Advisors and more for her August feature, she explains how technology is playing a greater role in this space, how alternative data and robo advisors are changing the sector, and whether or not Bitcoin ETFs will become a reality in the near future (hint: probably not.) And, being that Josephine is from the Republic of Ireland, she explains Gaelic Athletic Association (GAA) sports like Gaelic football and hurling to a bewildered Anthony.
