Is an Active ETF Fever About to Hit?


Active equity ETFs may be about to finally see the light of day. The WSJ reports that PowerShares got the preliminary go-ahead from the SEC on Friday for its actively managed ETFs. Barclays Global Investors and Bear Stearns are also slated to receive letters of preliminary approval as soon as today, according to the pub. Still no word on what the expense ratio on these products may be; PowerShares did not specify one in its filing. The new developments could put PowerShares' products on the market in less than a month.
