Mirae Asset Asset Management said on Jan. 30 that net assets in its TIGER KOSDAQ150 ETF have exceeded 1 trillion won.

The Korea Exchange said the fund’s net assets stood at 1.0423 trillion won as of Jan. 29. The TIGER KOSDAQ150 ETF tracks the KOSDAQ150 index, a benchmark index focused on domestic growth stocks. It is a benchmark index ETF that reflects the overall 흐름 of the KOSDAQ market.

The market has seen expectations for a “KOSDAQ 3000” spread. It is also expected that the government’s push to advance capital markets and expand the supply of venture capital will contribute positively to improving the KOSDAQ market’s fundamentals and restoring investor sentiment, after it lagged the KOSPI market.

The KOSDAQ index, calculated since July 1, 1996, posted a cumulative return of 16.4 percent through Jan. 29, 2026. Over the same period, the KOSPI index rose 526.2 percent, adding to expectations for a re-rating of the KOSDAQ market.

Average daily trading value for the TIGER KOSDAQ150 ETF in 2026 was 130.2 billion won, up about 17-fold from 7.5 billion won in 2025.

As the policy environment changed, interest rose in key growth industries on KOSDAQ such as biotech, secondary batteries, media and content, and IT materials, parts and equipment. That helped expand inflows.

Jeong Ui-hyun (정의현), head of ETF management at Mirae Asset Asset Management, said investment is being concentrated in the highest market-cap stocks within the KOSDAQ market as expectations for KOSDAQ market growth rise.
