On May 21, Mirae Asset Global Investments announced that the net assets of the TIGER US NASDAQ100 ETF had exceeded 10 trillion won.


According to the Korea Exchange, as of the previous day's closing price, the net assets of the TIGER US NASDAQ100 ETF stood at 10.2916 trillion won. This is the first time that a NASDAQ100 ETF listed in Korea has surpassed 10 trillion won in net assets. With this achievement, Mirae Asset Global Investments has further solidified its unrivaled leadership position in the overseas index ETF market, alongside its 'TIGER US S&P500 ETF,' which recently surpassed 18 trillion won in net assets.


This performance is attributed to the recent rally in the US stock market and a significant inflow of funds from long-term investors. The growth rate of the product has accelerated notably in recent years. While it took about four years to grow from 1 trillion won in net assets in 2021 to surpassing 5 trillion won in 2025, it added another 5 trillion won in just one year to reach the 10 trillion won mark. A representative from Mirae Asset Global Investments explained, "This demonstrates the continued expansion of domestic investors' demand for long-term, systematic investment in major US indices."


Listed in October 2010, the TIGER US NASDAQ100 ETF is the first US market representative ETF in the Korean ETF market. The price per share, which was 10,000 won at the time of listing, now approaches 200,000 won, establishing itself as a symbol of long-term investment in US equities. The US NASDAQ100 Index, consisting of the top 100 non-financial companies by market capitalization listed on the NASDAQ, represents high-growth industries in the US such as technology, telecommunications, consumer goods, and healthcare, garnering strong interest from Korean investors.



Namho Kim, Head of the Global ETF Management Division at Mirae Asset Global Investments, stated, "As the first US equity-type ETF in Korea, the TIGER US NASDAQ100 ETF has set a new milestone in the domestic market for investing in major US indices by surpassing 10 trillion won in net assets," and added, "As the TIGER ETF has led investment in major US indices, we will continue our efforts to establish it as a core long-term investment vehicle for investors."
