Milestone achieved less than eight months after celebrating $1 billion in assets. 

NEW YORK – April 16, 2026 — Tema ETFs (“Tema”), a leader in institutional-quality and actively managed exchange-traded funds, today announced that the firm has surpassed $2 billion in assets under management. The milestone comes less than eight months after surpassing $1 billion, and less than three years after listing its first ETF with under $5 million in seed capital.

Tema's recent growth has been led by three 2026 highlights:

  1. Institutional Adoption: More than 90% of Tema's AUM has been sourced from institutional investors, family offices, and leading financial intermediaries.1

  2. Accelerating Momentum: Against the backdrop of volatile markets, Tema has grown AUM by more than $550 million year-to-date, representing a growth rate in excess of 35%.2

  3. Breadth of Lineup: Five of the firm’s ten ETF solutions hold more than $100 million in assets, including its newest offering—the Tema Space Innovators ETF (NASA). Launched March 31 as the first pure-play space ETF to offer direct SpaceX exposure, NASA exceeded $100 million in AUM within its first 10 trading days.3

"2026 has been an exciting year for Tema, with Steve Munroe joining as President and driving meaningful growth and innovation. Nowhere is that more evident than with our Space Innovators ETF (NASA), which surpassed $100 million in its first 10 trading days.

“I continue to be most impressed by the investment performance of our product lineup, with multiple funds ranking as or among their Morningstar category leaders so far this year.”4

 – Maurits Pot, Founder and CEO of Tema.
