Lead market maker per Cboe BZX, NYSE Arca and Nasdaq, as of Oct 23, 2026. Where do these figures come from? From item E.2 of each ETF\u2019s latest Form N-CEN, which names its APs and the dollars each created and redeemed. ETFIQ groups the rows by Citadel Securities\u2019s CRD, SEC file number and LEI, never by the name as typed. Method\n Citadel Securities LLC is identified by CRD 116797, SEC file number 8-53574, LEI 12UUJYTN7D3SW8KCSG25. It is on the SEC\u2019s list of active broker-dealers dated Oct 1, 2026 as CITADEL SECURITIES LLC. Funds filed its name 7 ways; every spelling is in dealers.json. Every row is one authorized participant (AP) listed in item E.2 of an ETF\u2019s latest Form N-CEN, with the dollars of the fund\u2019s shares it purchased from the fund (created) and redeemed in the fund\u2019s reporting period, as filed. A fund\u2019s period is its own fiscal year, or less where the filing says so, so a firm\u2019s total adds periods that end on different days. Rows are grouped into firms by the identifiers each row carries: the CRD number first, the SEC file number and LEI where the CRD is missing or typed wrong, never by name. 71 of 75,056 rows carry a CRD their file number and LEI place on another firm, and are counted there. A firm\u2019s name is its registration on the SEC\u2019s list of active broker-dealers where it is on it.
