On June 9, Capital Group filed for two new actively managed multi-asset ETFs to support its rapidly growing lineup. Thus far in 2026, Capital Group’s U.S. ETF suite has captured strong momentum, pulling in more than $25 billion in net inflows and pushing total AUM to $150 billion as of June 10.
If approved, the Capital Group Multi-Asset Income ETF would provide robust current income through income-producing securities. Meanwhile, the Capital Group Multi-Asset Income Builder ETF takes a more growth-oriented approach, seeking to provide a level of income that exceeds the average yield on U.S. stocks. While these filings mark an expansion of the firm’s lineup, specific details regarding tickers and expense ratios have not yet been disclosed.
“Financial advisors have consistently told us they want actively managed ETFs to help meet their clients’ income needs. To meet that demand, we are leveraging Capital Group’s long history of combining equities and fixed income securities to meet income objectives and bring that capability into the ETF structure,” said Scott Davis, head of ETFs at Capital Group.

Expanding Already Strong Active Lineup
The firm currently manages a suite of 25 ETFs and eight all-ETF model portfolios, complemented by recently launched custom ETF models. As the third-largest active ETF issuer, Capital Group accounted for 7.4% of the active industry as of May 2026.
Furthermore, nearly three quarters of the firm’s ETF strategies have achieved first or second-quartile performance since their inception. Notably, the Capital Group Core Balanced ETF (CGBL ), which launched in September 2023, ranked favorably among moderate allocation funds, attracting $327 million in inflows as of May 2026.
“Historically asset allocation ETFs failed to gain popularity among advisors, but Capital Group has demonstrated recent success with CGBL. I’m excited to see these pending products come to market to provide even more choice for those looking for a multi-asset strategy,” said Todd Rosenbluth, head of research at TMX VettaFi.
The Growing Multi-Asset Class
Capital Group’s pending introduction of two new multi-asset income ETFs could help investors seeking to navigate heightened market volatility. By bundling a diverse array of equities, fixed income, and alternative assets like commodities into a single trade, these offerings create a simplified, one-stop shop for portfolio construction. This multi-asset framework allows for adjustments by the active manager, providing investors with a more balanced investment journey that aims to mitigate downside risk while pursuing income and growth objectives throughout market cycles.
The Capital Group Multi-Asset Income Builder ETF could act as a foundational portfolio building block for investors, by maintaining at least half of its assets in equities to seek income that consistently outpaces the average yield of the S&P 500. Meanwhile, the Capital Group Multi-Asset Income ETF would offer a broader multi-asset approach, establishing a higher baseline for equity exposure while granting greater flexibility within its fixed-income sleeve to potentially capitalize on higher-yielding debt securities.
