KOSPI 200 ETF Dominates Major Wealth Management Returns

The KOSPI 200 ETF has emerged as the top performer in major wealth management methods this year, outperforming even oil prices and gold.

According to data from Daishin Securities, the KODEX 200 ETF rose from 60,480 won on January 2 to 109,285 won on September 20, recording a return of 80.76%.

This is despite the KOSPI 200 index plummeting by more than 20% from its peak following a period of extreme market volatility in July.

The KODEX 200 ETF's return of approximately 40.6 times the 1.99% annualized return of 1-year time deposits at major banks is a testament to its strong performance.
