Combined assets of the funds are nearly $5 billion NEW YORK, Dec. 9, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- J.P. Morgan Asset Management today announced plans to convert select U.S. mutual funds to ETFs in 2026.
The proposed conversions, which are subject to Fund Board approval in February, are expected to provide benefits for investors in the mutual funds. The additional trading flexibility, increased portfolio holdings transparency and potential for enhanced tax efficiency that come with ETFs carry significant value to many investors, and J.P. Morgan believes that these particular strategies are well suited for the ETF structure. The combined assets of the funds proposed for conversion are approximately $4.6 billion (as of 10/31/2025).
