ICI’s investment company data collection efforts began in 1944, when investment company leaders first formed a committee to monitor industry progress and trends. At that time, the collection included data from 68 mutual funds managing nearly $900 million in assets. At year-end 2008, ICI collected data from 16,262 mutual funds, closed-end funds, exchange-traded funds, and unit investment trusts managing $10.3 trillion in assets.
