  • ETFs and mutual funds: What dual share classes could mean for investors
    May 4 2026

    Global ETF assets have climbed to roughly $20 trillion, and one structure is drawing fresh attention: dual share classes, where a single portfolio can be accessed as both a mutual fund and an ETF. Funmi Osiyale, from J.P. Morgan's ETF sales team, sits down with Dimensional’s Joel Schneider and Lauren Olson to explore how the model works and what benefits investors could see — from potential cost savings and tax efficiency to broader access and simpler product lineups. The conversation also covers day-to-day market mechanics, liquidity considerations and what’s next for Dimensional’s ETF platform.

  • The interplay between liquidity and collateral
    May 5 2026

    In this episode, three J.P. Morgan executives address the intricate connection between liquidity and collateral management. Eileen Herlihy, Head of Trading Services Sales, chats with O’Delle Burke, Global Head of Margin Services, and Michael Wynn, J.P. Morgan’s Global Head of FX and Liquidity for Securities Services, about the evolution of financing solutions as institutional investors raise and preserve cash. They discuss the importance of intraday liquidity, the rise of non-cash collateral, FX considerations, the increased attention to available cash with a shortened T+1 settlement cycle, and the tokenization of collateral. In this conversation, they explore how increasingly sophisticated firms are innovating to enhance alpha and preserve cash -- protecting it or deploying it as needed.
