| Abstract: | Fixed-income exchange-traded funds are spreading their wings by broadening their index base and venturing into active management. The number of funds has also achieved a fivefold increase to about 30 from six over the past year. Since fixed-income funds currently represent only a small fraction of the total ETF count of roughly 550 available in the U.S. (up from about 400 in 2006), they have substantial opportunity for growth. Indeed, scores of fixed-income ETFs are set to launch pending SEC approval. "We have a slew of fixed-income ETFs coming to market," observed Kirk Kinder, president of Picket Fence Financial, who spoke at Information Management Network's U.S. World Series of Exchange-Traded Funds West conference, held last month in Scottsdale, Ariz.
