Global X Japan Surpasses 500 Billion Yen in Managed Assets
Global X Japan, a subsidiary of Daiwa Securities Group, has recently achieved a significant milestone by surpassing 500 billion yen in managed assets. The company, located in Chiyoda, Tokyo, has experienced remarkable growth, particularly in its Exchange-Traded Funds (ETFs), which have become increasingly popular among investors.
Since its launch of the first ETFs in August 2020, the Global X MSCI Super Dividend-Japan Equity ETF and the Global X Logistics J-REIT ETF, Global X Japan has continuously expanded its ETF offerings, listing approximately ten new ETFs each year on the Tokyo Stock Exchange (TSE). This strategic approach has led the company to hold the number one position for new ETF listings on the TSE for five consecutive fiscal years, with a total of 54 ETFs listed as of July 2025. These ETFs are varied in nature, covering growth themes, income generation, core strategies, and commodities, ensuring a broad appeal to a diverse range of investors.
In terms of performance, Global X Japan's ETFs have stood out significantly. The Global X Semiconductor Related-Japan Equity ETF recorded a staggering increase of 90.4% in 2023, while the Global X US Tech Top 20 ETF saw a remarkable 64.3% growth in 2024. This consistent performance has placed Global X's ETFs at the forefront of the market for two consecutive years, showcasing the strength and resilience of their investment strategies.
Global X Japan’s strategic focus on developing innovative ETFs tailored to meet the expanding needs of institutional and individual investors has resulted in the successful launches of products like the Global X Global Leaders-Japan Equity ETF and the Global X US Tech Top 20 ETF, both of which have experienced substantial asset growth. The company has also introduced varied ETFs such as the Global X Ultra Long-Term US Bond ETF and Global X MSCI Cash Flow Kings-Japan Equity ETF, further contributing to the increase in managed assets.
Additionally, the introduction of the Global X China Tech ETF, focused on investing in leading Chinese tech companies, is another indication of the company's ambition to expand its product offerings. This ETF, set to launch in June 2025, marks a significant step towards enhancing Global X Japan’s portfolio while catering to the increasing interest in global tech investments.
The company has also seen growth in its covered call strategy ETFs. The Global X NASDAQ 100 Covered Call ETF, listed in the US, has significantly motivated asset growth for Global X’s NASDAQ 100 Covered Call ETF, which provides monthly distributions and has garnered attention for its relatively high dividend yield.
In June 2025, Global X Japan began airing a new TV commercial promoting “Ultra NISA,” aiming to highlight the potential of ETFs in Japan and the opportunities they present to investors. This initiative reflects Global X Japan’s commitment to increasing ETF awareness in the country, where ETF recognition still trails behind that of other markets, particularly the U.S.
As an innovative ETF management company, Global X Japan continues to leverage its unique capabilities to provide cutting-edge and high-value products. The firm is dedicated to supporting investor need through the continuous improvement of its ETF offerings, ensuring they remain ahead of market trends and investor demand.
