Exchange Traded Funds (ETFs)

With exchange traded funds from Fifth Third Securities, you can help diversify your portfolio. If you’re ready to add ETFs to your investment portfolio, a  Fifth Third Financial Professional can help you get started.

What is an Exchange Traded Fund?

Exchange Traded Funds (ETFs) generally combine aspects of mutual funds and conventional stocks. Like a mutual fund, an ETF is a collection of stocks, bonds, and other assets, and shareholders own a portion of the ETF. And similar to stocks, ETFs are traded on an exchange and can be traded throughout the day, which means they experience price changes throughout the day, too.

ETFs are subject to market fluctuation and the risks of their underlying investments. ETFs are subject to management fees and other expenses.

How Exchange Traded Funds Work

ETFs may provide a lower cost way to gain exposure to specific asset classes, geographic regions, and other targeted investment areas. They trade like stocks with the ability to buy and sell, with prices adjusting throughout the trading day. A Fifth Third Securities Financial Professional can help you determine whether ETFs make sense for your investment portfolio.
