Take a closer look at ETFs.

An inexpensive way to diversify and invest in your interests.

Exchange-traded funds, explained.

Let’s say you’re interested in a particular industry but don’t want to choose just one company to invest in, with an ETF, you don’t have to. ETFs are made up of a collection of securities like stocks, commodities, bonds, and other investment types. This allows you to invest in a particular sector, industry, or region instead of having to buy individual stocks.

  • Trade easily.

    You can typically buy and sell ETFs like you would stocks.

  • More diversification with less risk.

    Each ETF includes shares of a variety of companies, and more diversification in a certain category has potential to balance out other investments in your portfolio.

  • Explore ETFs that reflect your values.

    Build a portfolio based on themes, causes, or companies that matter to you.

  • Cost-conscious choices.

    ETFs are generally less expensive to manage than other investments, and we have hundreds of high-quality, commission-free ETFs.
