Why investors choose ETFs
An exchange-traded fund (ETF) is an investment that gives you exposure to a variety of stocks, bonds, or other investments through a single purchase. Some ETFs offer broad diversification across many investments, while others focus on a specific market, industry, asset class, or investment strategy.
ETFs can help you:
- Invest in many investments through one fund
- Spread your investments across markets, sectors and asset classes
- Buy and sell easily on the stock exchange
- Build a portfolio that fits your goals
