ETF.com Names Dave Nadig as President, Director of Research

ETF.com announced the appointment of Dave Nadig as President and Director of Research, marking a significant new chapter as the company rapidly expands under its new ownership.

ETF.com, recently acquired by Matt Middleton (Founder & CEO of Future Proof) and Anil D. Aggarwal (Founder and former CEO of Money20/20 & Fintech Meetup), is moving swiftly to build on the momentum of the acquisition and accelerate its vision of becoming an events-driven, multimedia platform.

With over 30 years of experience across ETFs and market structure, Nadig brings both deep expertise and a proven track record of industry innovation. Most recently, he served as Financial Futurist at VettaFi (formerly ETF Trends & ETF Database). His earlier leadership roles include CEO and Managing Director at ETF.com, Director of ETFs at FactSet, and senior strategy positions at Barclays Global Investors (pre-BlackRock), where he played a pivotal role in developing some of the industry’s earliest ETF products. Nadig has also been instrumental in creating large-scale industry events such as Inside ETFs and Exchange ETF.

“We’re excited to have Dave back as we reimagine ETF.com,” said Matt Middleton. “His vision, energy, and credibility make him the perfect partner as we turn ETF.com into a next-generation platform for events, community, and content. Few leaders are more trusted in the ETF world than Dave, and together we’re committed to serving investors of all kinds.”

“ETFs went from upstart to portfolio core,” said Dave Nadig. “With 4,000+ funds, investors need help not just understanding what they own, but who they’re trusting with their wealth. We’re rebuilding ETF.com to be that engine of trust, one smart conversation at a time.”

“Bringing Dave on board is central to our mission,” added Anil D. Aggarwal. “We are focused on creating innovative, high-value experiences that bring investors together with leading voices and connect product providers directly to an engaged community—placing meaningful connections at the heart of everything we do.”

ETF.com will soon launch refreshed offerings that spotlight unique industry voices, deliver best-in-class education, and create new avenues for investors, advisors, and sponsors to connect both online and at live events.
