Insight October 2013

 The October issue of Insight focuses on product development.

Our analysis tracks how many and what type of funds companies are introducing in the mutual, ETF and mutual funds of funds (MFoFs) segments. The focus is on identifying the common threads among the fund launches in terms of asset class flavours, product features and other innovations being tested in the marketplace. The Trendlines piece at the end of the report rounds out our survey of the Fundland’s launchpad with a look at product launch activity in the individual segregated fund arena.
