Navigating the Future

If you or someone from your firm is interested in having their voice heard on the ETF dual share class topic, please contact Sarah Walter ([email protected]) to learn more.

Nicsa is proud to serve as a catalyst for collaboration across the asset and wealth management industry. As firms navigate a rapidly evolving landscape, we remain committed to providing timely, practical resources to support their journey.

Our new ETF Share Class Toolkit is the latest example of this commitment.

The proposed ETF share class structure—allowing mutual funds to issue ETF share classes within the same portfolio—offers exciting opportunities for innovation and expanded investor choice. But with that potential comes complexity.

Operational alignment, regulatory uncertainty, and compliance risk are just a few of the hurdles firms must address. Implementing this model may also demand updates to technology systems, governance frameworks, and internal processes.

To support informed decision-making, our Toolkit offers a high-level overview of key considerations for evaluating this structure—from strategic trade-offs to operational requirements. It’s designed to guide internal discussions and help firms prepare for what’s ahead.
