CFRA Research

CFRA has three separate categories of ETF data; holdings, classifications and key stats data. The classifications and reference data we capture, consists of ~90 columns that give detailed information about an ETF. These granular details include asset class, expense ratio, index name, index weighting scheme, smart beta type and specific investment objectives, and are great for everything from helping our clients understand the characteristics of an ETF, to generating meaningful peer groups.

Our holdings data, details all the constituent securities in each ETF with names, identifiers, and the weights for each security to give great transparency, and allowing our clients to fully understand the drivers behind risk or opportunity in an investment. To complete the dataset, we collect key ETF performance data, including prices, NAV’s, flows, returns and much more, all of which is collected and published for multiple time periods. Our data is available right now for over + 9,500 unique ETF’s globally.

NB this universe will vary slightly over time as new ETF’s are bought to market and others are delisted.
