For Large Investors

Designated Participants for ETFs

A designated participant is a securities company that can directly conduct transactions of ETFs and their underlying stocks with the management company based on the conditions of creation/exchange for the relevant ETF released by such management company. (Same in cases of cash creation/cancellation)
Additionally, designated participants conduct active arbitrage trading between ETFs and their underlying stocks, and ETFs and the futures market using the creation/exchange mechanism, thus improving the tracking between the ETF market price and the stock price index.
