What makes ETFs different?
One transaction, many shares
An ETF can hold shares across many industries, or focus on one sector or theme.
Easy to buy and sell
You buy or sell a whole basket of investments in a single transaction, on the stock exchange.
Your risk is spread
A single ETF holds many investments, so one company having a bad day matters less.
Tax-free, often
93 of the 104 ETFs here can go in a tax-free savings account.
What is an ETF, exactly?
An exchange traded fund is a basket of investments, such as shares, bonds or commodities, that trades on the stock exchange as one.
Most ETFs track an index, like the JSE Top 40 or the S&P 500, by holding what's in it. Some are actively managed, with a manager choosing the investments.
Intro to ETFsWhat to look at when you compare
What it tracks
The index or strategy decides what you own: a market, a region, a sector or an asset class.
What it costs
The total expense ratio (TER) is taken from the fund each year. Small differences add up over time.
How big it is
Fund size shows how much money is invested in the ETF.
How it has done
Returns over different periods show how it has behaved, though past performance doesn't tell you what comes next.
