JPMorgan Chase & Co. (JPM), the sixth-largest ETF issuer, said second-quarter exchange-traded fund assets jumped 47% from the same quarter last year as actively managed equity funds pulled in new money amid rising markets.

ETF assets rose to $275.5 billion from $187.2 billion a year ago, the New York-based bank said in an email. They gained 15% from $239.9 billion at the end of the first quarter.

The world’s biggest bank by assets said its 140 ETFs have pulled in $34 billion so far this year, 16% better than the previous year and a $15 billion jump from the first quarter. The bank is focused on active ETFs, and the 91 it’s issued pulled in nearly all—$33 billion—of year-to-date flows.

While JPMorgan is known for the $41.1 billion JPMorgan Equity Premium Income ETF (JEPI), its $28.3 billion JPMorgan NASDAQ Equity Premium Income ETF (JEPQ) pulled in twice the cash during the quarter, grabbing $3.7 billion to the former’s $1.7 billion.

Investors rushed into stocks during the second quarter, as the S&P 500 rose 11% to emerge from a brief bear market, with fears of a tariff-induced global slowdown and inflation easing. They poured $247.8 billion into ETFs, according to FactSet data reported by etf.com, a 16% drop from the first quarter’s $296 billion.

“The U.S. economy remained resilient in the quarter,” JPMorgan CEO Jamie Dimon said in last week’s earnings statement. “Significant risks persist—including from tariffs and trade uncertainty, worsening geopolitical conditions, high fiscal deficits and elevated asset prices.”

JPMorgan joins rivals, including BlackRock Inc. (BLK), Charles Schwab Corp. (SCHW), State Street Corp. (STT) and Invesco Ltd. (IVZ), in reporting that assets surged in their ETF businesses during the second quarter thanks to rising inflows and stock prices.

JPMorgan also said it issued 17 new ETFs during the quarter, with 14 of them being active funds.
