An ETF (Exchange Traded Fund) is an investment fund that holds a group of securities, such as stocks or bonds. ETFs are traded on a stock exchange, which means they can be bought and sold in a similar way to listed shares. ETFs have become popular because they offer transparent and cost-efficient access to different markets and investment themes.
An active ETF is managed by an investment team that makes decisions about which securities to buy or sell, rather than simply tracking an index.
Diversification – Investors gain exposure to many securities within a single fund
Intraday Trading – ETF shares can be bought and sold throughout the trading day at market prices
Cost Efficiency – ETFs often have lower ongoing fees than traditional investment funds, although brokerage costs may apply
Low starting amount – There is usually no minimum investment amount other than the price of one ETF unit
Transparency – ETFs typically disclose their holdings on a daily basis
Liquidity – ETFs are traded on exchanges and supported by market makers, helping investors buy and sell more easily
Individual Investor – Buys and sells ETF units through a brokerage account
ETF Sponsor – The financial institution that creates and manages the ETF
Authorized Participant (AP) – An institution that helps create and redeem ETF units
ETF Market Maker – A firm that supports trading by providing buy and sell prices on the exchange
