AllianceBernstein's 00984D Hits 10 Billion TWD Milestone as Taiwan's First Active Bond ETF

Finance · Investment Managers · cnyes · 2026-09-01

AllianceBernstein's 00984D has become the first active bond ETF in Taiwan to surpass 10 billion TWD in assets, driven by investor demand for lower-volatility yields.

What Happened

Rapid Asset Growth: Since its inception in January, AllianceBernstein's 00984D has seen its assets under management surge from 1.49 billion TWD to 10.55 billion TWD as of August 27. The number of investors has also grown six-fold, marking a significant milestone as the first active bond ETF in Taiwan to exceed the 10 billion TWD threshold.

Market Hedging Demand: With the Taiwan stock market trading at high levels, investors are increasingly concerned about volatility stemming from corporate earnings, interest rate fluctuations, and global capital flows. Non-investment grade bonds have become a preferred choice for those seeking higher yields while balancing portfolio risk.

Active Management Appeal: Unlike passive ETFs, the active management approach of 00984D allows professional managers to navigate market shifts more effectively. The fund's rapid growth highlights a growing appetite among Taiwanese investors for flexible, professionally managed fixed-income products.

Investment Outlook: Analysts suggest that bond assets remain a critical component for risk-adjusted returns in the current macroeconomic climate. The success of 00984D underscores the market's ongoing search for stable income streams and effective risk management tools.
