Exchange Traded Funds (ETFs) - Trade

Exchange Traded Funds (ETFs) are open ended investment funds that are traded directly on the stock exchange. The objective of an ETF is to track the performance of an underlying index or even to replicate the performance of a composition of different stocks.

key features

Diversification

As ETFs mimic the composition of a stock index, you gain exposure to a variety of securities without having to invest time and money into individual stocks.

Affordability

ETFs are traded directly on the exchange and passively managed, hence there is a zero sales charge and management fees are lower compared to actively managed funds like Unit Trusts.

Liquidity

The purchase and sale of ETFs between buyers and sellers is ongoing throughout a working day on the stock exchange, making it easy for you to liquidate your investments.

Reduced Volatility

Due to their broad equities exposure, ETFs are more resilient and can provide a buffer against extreme fluctuation or erosion of investment value, in the face of market volatility.

Benefits

Low Cost Diversification

Buying an ETF such as STI ETF (State Street) gives you instant exposure to 30 companies which constitute the index, without buying into each of the single stocks and incurring high brokerage fees.

Access Hard-to-Reach Sectors

With ETFs, you can now readily access otherwise hard to reach assets and sectors, such as gold and oil.

Page Transparency

Enjoy intra-day price transparency on their listed exchanges.

Recurring Subscription Plan

A Recurring Subscription Plan, previously known as the Monthly Investment Plan, allows you to invest a fixed amount of money into Stocks or Exchange-Traded Funds (ETFs) of your choice at regular intervals. This strategy benefits from dollar-cost averaging, where you invest a consistent amount regularly regardless of market conditions. This means you buy more units when prices are low and fewer units when prices are high, smoothing out the purchase price over time.

RISKS OF ETFs

ETFs are subject to the following types of risks:

MARKET RISK
Investors are exposed to the price volatility of the underlying assets which the ETF tracks. Generally, where the price level of the underlying declines, the value of ETF declines as well.
FOREIGN EXCHANGE RISK
If the traded currency of an ETF is different from the functional currency of the investor, the investor will be exposed to fluctuations in foreign exchange rates which may affect the returns on the ETF.
