Diversification
One ETF can give the holder exposure to a group of equities, market segments or styles. In comparison to a stock, the ETF can track a broader range of equities.
Lower Fees Compared to Managed Funds
ETF’s require less active management and as such have much lower costs compared to other managed funds.
Trades Like a Stock
Although the ETF might give the holder the benefits of being able to invest in multiple equities, it still trades like an equity / share.
- ETFs can be freely purchased and sold throughout the trading day.
- They trade at a price that is updated throughout the day.
