Understanding ETFs: A Modern Investment Tool

Understanding ETFs

Exchange-Traded Funds (ETFs) are investment funds that are traded on stock exchanges, much like stocks. They hold assets such as stocks, commodities, or bonds and generally operate with an arbitrage mechanism.

Benefits of ETFs

ETFs offer several advantages, including lower expense ratios and tax efficiency compared to mutual funds. They also provide diversification and flexibility.
