What is the difference between mutual funds and exchange traded funds? Both mutual funds and exchange traded funds (ETFs) originate from the concept of pooled fund investing, which bundles securities together to offer investors a more diversified portfolio. However, mutual funds and ETFs have some key differences. For instance, ETFs offer more flexible trading as they trade during the day like stocks, while mutual funds only allow transactions at the end of the day. Moreover, ETFs are mostly passively-managed and mirror a designated index. On the other hand, mutual funds are typically actively-managed, as it can be seen by comparing the number of actively and passively-managed mutual funds in the United States.

As of August 2025, Vanguard Total Stock Market ETF was the highest valued exchange-traded fund globally, with a market capitalization of about ******illion U.S. dollars. Market capitalization of an ETF is calculated by multiplying the number of shares issued in the fund by the share price. At over ****trillion U.S. dollars, the Vanguard Total Stock Market Index Fund is overall the largest investment fund by AUM. The Vanguard fund is different because shares in the fund are sold as a variety of different products, some of which are structured as ETFs (like the third-largest fund listed in this statistic), while others are structured as traditional mutual funds. What are ETFs? ETFs are similar to mutual funds, in that they consist of a pool of investors’ funds which are managed by an independent third party for the purpose of a common financial investment. However, ETFs differ through how shares in the fund are bought and sold through a stock exchange, rather than directly from the fund manager. This provides the advantages of generally lower prices (as the transaction costs are paid by the exchange operator rather than the fund manager), and the possibility of intraday trading (as shares in a traditional mutual fund can only be bought and sold after the close of daily trading. The total assets managed by ETFs globally is almost *** times lower than that of mutual funds, although the gap in AUM between ETFs and mutual funds in the United States is much lower, at just over ***** times less. Who are the largest ETF providers? The largest provider of ETFs globally is Blackrock, the world’s largest asset management company. As of August 2025, the company had more than *** trillion U.S. dollars of assets under management in exchange traded funds in the U.S. alone, while Blackrock’s total assets under management across all products reached over *****trillion U.S. dollars.

As of August 12, 2025, the largest mutual fund in the world was the Vanguard Total Stock Market Index Fund, listed under the ticker VTSAX, which had an astonishing **** trillion U.S. dollars of net assets under management (AUM).

An index that can be used to gauge broad financial conditions and assess how these conditions are related to future economic growth. The index is broadly consistent with how the FRB/US model generally relates key financial variables to economic activity. The index aggregates changes in seven financial variables: the federal funds rate, the 10-year Treasury yield, the 30-year fixed mortgage rate, the triple-B corporate bond yield, the Dow Jones total stock market index, the Zillow house price index, and the nominal broad dollar index using weights implied by the FRB/US model and other models in use at the Federal Reserve Board. These models relate households' spending and businesses' investment decisions to changes in short- and long-term interest rates, house and equity prices, and the exchange value of the dollar, among other factors. These financial variables are weighted using impulse response coefficients (dynamic multipliers) that quantify the cumulative effects of unanticipated permanent changes in each financial variable on real gross domestic product (GDP) growth over the subsequent year. The resulting index is named Financial Conditions Impulse on Growth (FCI-G). One appealing feature of the FCI-G is that its movements can be used to measure whether financial conditions have tightened or loosened, to summarize how changes in financial conditions are associated with real GDP growth over the following year, or both.
