Implemented Portfolios primarily uses Exchange Traded Funds (ETFs) to build portfolios and target exposures to the asset classes outlined in the Investment Program.
In their simplest form, ETFs are a collection of securities designed to track the performance of a specific index. For example, you can buy shares in an ETF that tracks the performance of the S&P/ASX 50, an index that tracks the largest 50 companies listed on the Australian Stock Exchange, weighted for the size of each company.
ETFs have grown rapidly both internationally and here in Australia as investors have been attracted to their low cost, transparent, tax efficient characteristics, and there are funds that cover all asset classes and markets around the world.
