Last week (on February 31), Debbie Fuhr, managing partner at ETFGI, revealed that the U.S. ETF and ETP industry brought in $90.25 billion in net January 2025 inflows. (This finding is part of ETFGI's January 2025 "US ETFs industry landscape insights" report.) That's down $57.06 billion (38.7 percent) month-over-month from December 2024. Yet last month's inflows were still a January record, up by $11.47 billion (14.6 percent) from the prior record in January 2018.

U.S. ETFs and ETPs held a combined $10.73 trillion in AUM on January 31, 2025, up M/M by 3.7 percent ($380 billion) from December 31, 2024. That January 31 figure is also an all-time industry record, up by 1.3 percent ($140 billion) from the prior record set just two months earlier, on November 31, 2024. Last month was the industry's 33rd consecutive month of net inflows.

As of the end of last month, the U.S. ETF industry included 3,993 ETFs and ETPs. That's up by 1.6 percent (63) M/M.

372 ETF providers operated in the U.S. as of January 31, 2025. That count is up by 8 (2.2 percent) M/M.
