BNY Mellon's global head of ETFs predicts that exchange-traded funds with options overlays will be the next popular product in the market.

Ben Slavin stated on CNBC's "ETF Edge" on Monday that there will be a rise in options-based products in the market, as seen in their own book.

Options overlays are a way for investors to hedge against downside.

"In the end, more issuers will pursue the trend we're observing," Slavin predicted.
