There were a few earlier funds, but State Street’s was the first commercially viable launch and remains the largest ETFExchange-traded funds (ETFs) with over $365 billion in assets.

As CEO of Barclays Global Investors (formerly Wells Fargo Investment Advisors) Dunn, in 1996, took the industry lead launching the iShares family of ETFsExchange-traded funds (ETFs).
