As of the end of 2025, the Taiwan ETF market continued its robust growth, solidifying its position as one of Asia’s largest ETF markets. The landscape is dominated by two primary categories: Taiwan Equity ETFs, particularly those tracking the main index or focused on high dividends, and US Treasury Bond ETFs, which have seen massive institutional and retail inflows seeking stable returns amidst global interest rate cycles.
The rankings below are compiled based on the most recent publicly available Assets Under Management (AUM) data from the Taiwan Stock Exchange (TWSE) and Securities Investment Trust and Consulting Association (SITCA) as of late 2025.

Key Trends Driving the Top 10
1. Dominance of Taiwan Equity and High Dividend
Taiwanese retail investors exhibit a strong preference for high-dividend payouts, which is reflected in the fact that five out of the top ten are dedicated high-dividend ETFs (0056, 00878, 00919, 00713, 00929). Funds like 0050 remain the cornerstone for broad, large-cap index exposure, essentially granting investors ownership in the core companies of the Taiwan Stock Exchange (TWSE), such as TSMC.
2. The Rise of Bond ETFs
A significant structural shift in the 2020s was the soaring popularity of bond ETFs. Long-term US Treasury bond ETFs, such as 00679B and 00687B, have become critical holdings. Investors have been attracted to the dual benefits of relatively high coupon rates and the potential for capital gains should US interest rates decline. This category demonstrates the growing sophistication and diversification of the Taiwanese investor base beyond domestic equities.
3. Concentration of Issuers
The market remains highly concentrated among a few major players. Yuanta Securities Investment Trust Company (SITC) and Cathay Securities Investment Trust Company (SITC) consistently lead the market, with Fubon and Capital also holding substantial market share. This issuer concentration is a defining characteristic of the Taiwan ETF market.
