Goldman Sachs ETFs Net $8.2 Billion in Flows

The book on 2025 is officially closed. With its end comes plenty of data for investors to review and learn from, from returns to yields and everything in between. Fund flows, for example, can tell market watchers a lot about where markets saw opportunity and which funds benefited most. Goldman Sachs ETFs picked up more than $8 billion with its 49 ETFs — with certain key themes emerging.

Just as income ETFs dominated the ETF landscape last year, so too did they lead for Goldman’s suite. The two strategies that saw more than a billion in net inflows both focus on equity income — GPIX and GPIQ. The pair offer income-focused takes on the S&P 500 and the Nasdaq-100, respectively. 

The Goldman Sachs S&P 500 Premium Income ETF (GPIX) and the Goldman Sachs Nasdaq-100 Premium Income ETF (GPIQ) saw near equal flows at $2.18 and $2.13 billion respectively for 2025. The funds both charge 29 basis points (bps) for investors. Each actively invests in companies within their marked indexes, selling call options on the underlying equities. They have returned 16.24% and 19.8% over one year, respectively.

Thirteen other ETFs offered by the firm saw more than $100 million in net inflows meanwhile. Those included other strategies benefitting from broader trends in ETF success, like the shop’s gold ETF, AAAU. The Goldman Sachs Physical Gold ETF (AAAU) charges 18 bps for exposure to spot gold, benefiting from global uncertainty and currency issues. The fund added $869 million in calendar year 2025, according to ETF Database data. AAAU led the firm’s ETF suite for performance over the last one year with 64.1% in that time. 

Overall, the shop has added $8.2 billion in total flows for the year. Intriguingly, more than half of those flows came in the second half of the year, with $5.5 billion in the last six months. The success of those ETFs in 2025 may draw attention to other opportunities in its suite in 2026, from foreign equities to its fixed income offerings.
