Key Takeaways
The launch of 91DINC and 91GINC represents a meaningful evolution in the South African ETF market by broadening access to actively managed income strategies via listed vehicles. Rather than passive funds tracking indices, these AMETFs enable investors to engage with multi-asset income mandates—domestic and global—with real-time liquidity and transparency. For income-focused investors seeking alternatives to cash and fixed deposits, these products provide diversified tools that can respond to changing market conditions. The inclusion of offshore exposure through 91GINC also helps hedge local currency risk for South African investors. From the market infrastructure perspective, the fact that the JSE now lists 125 ETFs and has surpassed a combined cap of R249 billion shows growing maturity and scale. Going forward, investors will need to evaluate factor-risk exposures, fee structures, and the ability of these funds to deliver on their income objectives amid varying interest-rate and macro-economic environments.
