Mirae Asset Global Investments Surpasses 450 Trillion Won in Assets Under Management

200 Trillion Won Growth in Three Years
Strengthening Its Position as a Global Asset Manager

Mirae Asset Global Investments announced on September 29 that its total assets under management have surpassed 450 trillion won. As a global asset management company, Mirae Asset Global Investments plans to lead the future financial market based on innovation and trust.

Mirae Asset Global Investments became the first Korean asset manager to enter overseas markets by establishing its Hong Kong branch in 2003. The company now manages a total of 456 trillion won across 16 regions, including the United States, Canada, India, Japan, and Australia. Its assets under management, which stood at 250 trillion won at the end of 2022, increased to 305 trillion won by the end of 2023 and reached 378 trillion won by the end of 2024, marking a 200 trillion won increase in just three years. The company is recognized for continuously securing growth momentum and strengthening its position as a global asset manager.

Approximately 45% of total assets under management are managed overseas. This achievement is attributed to the company’s ongoing introduction of “killer products” based on innovation, which have earned recognition from global investors. The total assets under management for Mirae Asset’s global ETF business have reached 250 trillion won, recording an average annual growth rate of 36.8% over the past 10 years, surpassing the 19.5% average annual growth rate of global ETF managers during the same period. In Korea, the “TIGER ETF” brand has established itself as the top choice among individual investors by offering a diverse range of premium ETFs. Overseas, “Global X” is experiencing rapid growth in the United States, Canada, Europe, Hong Kong, Japan, and Australia, driven by enhanced local expertise and continuous innovation.

The company’s role as a long-term investment partner is also being strengthened. Mirae Asset Global Investments, which was the first in Korea to launch a target date fund (TDF), is leading the pension market with the largest amount of pension fund assets, the highest TDF market share, and the largest amount of assets in default option-exclusive funds.

This year, as the first comprehensive asset management company in Korea, Mirae Asset launched “M-ROBO,” a robo-advisor service dedicated to retirement pensions, marking the beginning of the “Pension 2.0 era.” The company is expected to provide an AI-based, customized pension management solution that combines Mirae Asset’s pension fund management expertise with AI technology and investment philosophy.

Mirae Asset Global Investments is recognized as a trusted investment partner. Notably, since 2021, the company has served as the lead manager of the pension fund investment pool, introducing innovations such as expanding public institution deposits, diversifying investment assets, and launching the first alternative investment products. The company has expanded its investment areas to include global investments, overseas real estate, infrastructure, and assets of international financial institutions, thereby pursuing both stability and profitability. In August of this year, Mirae Asset became the first to launch a venture investment product for the pension fund investment pool, contributing to the expansion of venture investments by pension funds and public institutions.

The company is also accelerating preparations for the future. On September 25, Mirae Asset Global Investments signed an MOU with the blockchain platform Avalanche. The two companies plan to lead the global digital asset management ecosystem by introducing innovative financial solutions that incorporate blockchain technology in countries where regulations permit. Mirae Asset is also strengthening synergies with its global affiliates, such as the U.S.-based AI company Wealthspot and the Australian robo-advisor specialist Stockspot, to respond to the era of AI-driven finance.

Lee Junyong, Vice Chairman of Mirae Asset Global Investments, stated, “Over the past 28 years, Mirae Asset Global Investments has continuously taken on challenges in the global capital market, elevating the status of Korean finance. We will continue to uphold customer trust through honest and principled management and fulfill our responsibilities as a global asset manager.”
