Investors now have two new exchange-traded funds from iShares giving them greater cost-effective access to the Australian corporate fixed income market.

BetaShares has launched a new exchange-traded fund (ETF) focused on providing access to Australia’s listed technology sector.

VanEck will focus on the emerging market bond sector as a source of income for the launch of its first active ETF in Australia.

Index exchange-traded funds generated greater returns than their actively managed counterparts over the past year, according the latest market research.
