S&P Global Market Intelligence has introduced ETF Intelligence, a new analytics service designed to give market participants a clearer view of the rapidly expanding global ETF market.

The platform combines proprietary data, ETF analytics and market insights to help users analyse fund flows, sector trends, investment themes, liquidity, portfolio exposures, valuation and risk across the global ETF universe.

The launch comes as ETF markets continue to grow in both size and complexity. According to analysis from S&P Global Market Intelligence, assets in U.S. options-based ETFs rose from less than $5 billion in 2019 to $245 billion in 2025, highlighting the pace of investor demand and product innovation across the sector.

As ETFs become more sophisticated, investors and institutions increasingly require deeper transparency into how products are structured, how they behave, and what risks sit beneath the surface.

ETF Intelligence has been developed to address that need, offering coverage of more than 15,000 ETFs across major global markets. The service provides over 150 daily metrics across areas such as flows, performance, liquidity, volatility, benchmark comparisons and portfolio composition.

The new service forms part of S&P Global Market Intelligence’s wider portfolio of cross-platform, multi-asset data and managed services. It reflects the company’s broader strategy of combining related analytics, datasets and workflow tools within specific asset classes.

“As the ecosystem scales in both size and complexity, the ability to understand underlying exposures, liquidity and risk with greater precision is paramount,” said Paul Wilson, Head of Data, Pricing, Valuations & Analytics at S&P Global Market Intelligence. “Our aim in developing ETF Intelligence is to help clients better understand the forces shaping ETFs and to support more informed decision-making in a rapidly evolving market.”

Key Features of ETF Intelligence

ETF Intelligence combines ETF analytics with proprietary S&P Global datasets, allowing users to generate multi-dimensional insights and support custom signal development across asset classes.

The service also provides industry and trend intelligence, helping users analyse ETF flows, sector performance, thematic investment trends and broader market dynamics.

Its data foundation includes more than a decade of historical information, alongside daily refreshed analytics designed to support both long-term trend analysis and more timely decision-making.

With global coverage across more than 15,000 ETFs, the platform is aimed at a wide range of market participants, including ETF issuers, index providers, hedge funds, asset managers, investment banks, quantitative traders and research professionals.
