Tiburon Strategic Advisors, one of the leading market research and consulting firms to the financial services industry, has just completed a new research report titled "ETFs & Indexing: The Movement Towards Market-Linked Products".

"One of the hottest trends in the industry is exchange traded funds (ETFs) and indexing. Firms such as Barclay's, State Street and Vanguard are out in front. Other firms like Power Shares, DFA, Rydex, and Pro Funds are developing more advanced products. In any case, exchange traded funds and index funds are hot. This report will predict their future," said Tiburon Managing Principal Chip Roame.

Key highlights of the report include the evolution of the market-linked products business, including indexed separate accounts, index mutual funds, exchange traded funds; a profile of markets and distribution channels; and market predictions for the market-linked products business.

The ETF portion looks at the past, present and future of ETFs, the investment mechanics, structures and key drivers.
