TIGER 200 ETF Surpasses 600 Billion Won in Cumulative Net Purchases by Individuals Since Start of Year

Mirae Asset Global Investments announced on November 27 that individual investors' cumulative net purchases of the 'TIGER 200 ETF' since the beginning of the year have surpassed 600 billion won.

According to the Korea Exchange, as of November 26, the cumulative net purchases by individuals of the TIGER 200 ETF since the start of the year amounted to 608.2 billion won. The TIGER 200 ETF tracks the KOSPI 200 index, which is Korea's representative stock index. As it consists of large-cap stocks with the highest market capitalization in Korea, it is a core index ETF that most broadly reflects the overall trend of the Korean stock market.

The TIGER 200 ETF has been attracting more attention as the domestic stock market continues to see a strengthening buying trend centered on large-cap stocks. Improved liquidity indicators have enhanced trading convenience, drawing increased interest from individual investors. As of November 26, the TIGER 200 ETF's average daily trading value over the past 20 days was 254.2 billion won, a 347% increase compared to last year's average daily trading value of 56.9 billion won. Among all listed ETFs in Korea, it ranked fifth in trading value during this period.

Another advantage is its ability to maximize investment efficiency through low fees. The total expense ratio of the TIGER 200 ETF is 0.05% per year, which is the lowest among domestically listed ETFs tracking the same index. Investors are expected to maximize the effect of long-term compounding even amid volatile market conditions.

Jung Hyun Jeong, Head of ETF Management Division at Mirae Asset Global Investments, explained, "Amid the AI chip competition between Google and Nvidia, expectations for a supercycle in domestic semiconductor companies are rising again." He added, "In addition to the benefits for export-oriented stocks in a high exchange rate environment, the introduction of separate taxation on dividends is having a positive policy impact. The investment appeal of the TIGER 200 ETF, which allows investors to capture the growth potential of leading KOSPI 200 companies at a low cost all at once, is being further strengthened."
