Nate Geraci

Nate Geraci is president of the ETF Institute and host of The ETF Prime podcast, one of the most listened-to programs in the ETF industry. He provides commentary, education, and analysis on ETF market developments including the rise of active ETFs, thematic funds, options-based ETFs, and cryptocurrency ETFs. Geraci is widely followed by both retail investors and institutional ETF professionals for his accessible but rigorous approach to explaining ETF structure and strategy differences. He also writes for ETF.com and appears regularly in financial media. His tracking of ETF product innovation — including the rapid expansion of buffer ETFs using defined-outcome options strategies, the regulatory approval pathway for spot cryptocurrency ETFs, and the conversion of mutual funds to ETF wrappers — has made him an early-warning source for advisors and institutional investors seeking to understand which ETF structures are gaining traction and why.
