Commodities ETFs with Bloomberg's Jigna Gibb | Ep.141
We are joined this week by Jigna Gibb to learn more about ETFS - specifically Commodities ETFs. Jigna is Head of Commodities and Crypto Index Products at Bloomberg and takes us through the growth of this type of investment, who is trading them and the latest trends.
We also discuss leveraged ETFs, which are less widely known in the UK than the US, how more people are taking short positions on ETFs, and lastly the friendlier regulatory environment around crypto ETFs.
Our apologies for the sound quality in this episode.
