Exchange Traded Funds (ETFs)
Exchange Traded Funds (ETFs) are mutual investment funds that are traded on a stock exchange. Most ETFs available today are Index-tracking, investing in a specific portfolio of securities following a:
- Stock or Bond index
- Specific Industry or Regional Sector
Due to the passive nature of index tracking ETFs, management expenses are low; the costs associated with trading passive ETFs are typically lower than for actively managed funds and most mutual funds. Spreads at which passive ETFs are traded are also normally tight.
