ETFBook raises $13M to expand US and Asia-Pacific

ETFBook has raised $13 million to expand operations in the United States and the Asia-Pacific and broaden distribution of exchange-traded fund data and analytics.

The company will use the funds to scale product, sales and engineering teams and increase coverage of regional ETF listings.

ETFBook supplies ETF data, research and portfolio tools to asset managers, financial advisers and trading desks. Management plans to recruit specialists in data engineering, product management and local-market sales to speed regional client onboarding and improve the platform’s data feeds and analytics.

Proceeds will be used to add more Asia-Pacific-listed ETFs to the firm’s datasets and to improve the timeliness and depth of fund-level metrics. ETFBook plans investments in infrastructure to support higher-frequency data distribution and to integrate data sources such as portfolio holdings, liquidity measures and fee comparisons.

Asset managers and institutional investors use consolidated ETF information to compare fund structures, track flows and build model portfolios. ETFBook intends to offer a single reference for those needs in North America and the Asia-Pacific.

The company did not disclose investor identities or the terms of the financing. Executives described the funding as intended to accelerate regional expansion and indicated the firm will continue its existing data feeds and analytics while adding regional-specific content and client support.

Industry participants noted demand for independent ETF data has risen as exchange-traded product structures and strategies have diversified. ETF issuers in the Asia-Pacific have introduced niche funds and local share classes, increasing the need for tools that standardize comparisons across markets.

ETFBook’s core products help clients monitor fund performance, compare expense structures and assess liquidity measures. The platform aggregates regulatory filings, exchange listings and market data to produce standardized fund profiles and performance reports.

The funding will support enhancements to cross-jurisdiction service and compliance capabilities, including support for different reporting standards and market conventions, and deeper integrations with third-party platforms used by wealth managers and trading firms to reduce manual reconciliation.
