Abstract: Abstract This chapter focuses on the exponential growth of passive management and on the evolution of this industry. We first focus on the birth of Index Funds and Exchange-Traded Funds, providing several statistics on the dynamics of passive investing in the equity markets. Therefore, we focus on the main developments of this sector and the advance of hybrids that are erasing what was once a clear line between active and passive management. As a consequence, active and passive investment products are moving closer and closer, so much so that they have begun to overlap: examples are Smart beta ETFs and Active ETFs.
