Your Questions Answered
While ETFs typically track market indices passively, AMETFs offer active management, aiming to outperform the market with strategic investment choices. Dive into these distinct investment approaches to find the right fit for your portfolio goals.
-
What is an ETF?
An ETF gives you access to a collection of assets – like shares or bonds – all bundled into one fund. Think of it as a basket holding a variety of investments. Unlike regular funds, ETFs trade on the stock exchange, meaning you can buy or sell them throughout the day, just like a share. They’re known for being affordable, transparent, and easy to manage, making them a great way to diversify your investments. -
What Exactly is an AMETF?
An AMETF is a dynamic investment fund traded on stock exchanges, much like stocks. It's managed by professionals aiming to beat the market, offering you the expertise to potentially enhance returns. -
What Types of Assets Do AMETFs Invest In?
AMETFs aren't limited to one type of asset. They can include a mix of shares, bonds, commodities, and more, giving your portfolio broad exposure. -
What Are the Investment Goals of AMETFs?
Whether it's growing your capital, generating income, or minimising risk, AMETFs actively pursue specific objectives, adapting to market changes and economic trends. -
How Do AMETFs Differ from Passive ETFs?
Unlike passive ETFs that track an index, AMETFs leverage the insight of investment managers to make timely decisions that aim to surpass standard market indexes. -
How do AMETFs Differ From Unit Trusts?
AMETFs and Unit Trusts are both types of collective investment schemes, providing investors with a proportionate share of the underlying assets. However, they differ in structure, transparency, and trading. While Unit Trusts issue participatory units and are traded at the fund’s net asset value (NAV) once a day, AMETFs participatory interest are offered by the fund and listed, they trade as shares throughout the day on the stock exchange, offering greater liquidity. Investors can access ETFs directly via stockbrokers or platforms like EasyEquities, but should consider that ETFs, including AMETFs, may involve additional listing-related expenses. Both investments aim to grow wealth over the medium to long term, but AMETFs blend active management with the flexibility of stock exchange trading, setting them apart from traditional Unit Trusts. -
What Are the Risks and Rewards of Investing in AMETFs?
With the possibility of higher returns, AMETFs also bear the risk of underperformance, requiring a skilled manager at the helm. -
Are AMETFs Cost-Effective Compared to Passive ETFs?
AMETFs typically have higher fees than passive ETFs, but they offer the advantage of professional management and the potential for better returns.
