Best of Canada ETF Suite
The Best of Canada ETFs concentrate on sector leaders with fewer than ten constituents per fund, ensuring focus on the most liquid securities in each sector.
“We’ve seen Canadians invest billions in concentrated, equal-weight bank ETFs,” stated Rohit Mehta, president, and CEO of Global X, adding that the suite was developed to provide access to core Canadian industries and prominent companies within them.
