The education program highlights the many benefits of ETFs and how to integrate ETFs into portfolios.
ETFs offer:
- lower fees than actively managed funds
- full transparency - holdings are shown on a daily basis
- liquidity and simplicity - buy and sell on exchange just like a share
- tax efficiency
We recognise that one of the greatest benefits that advisers can provide to their clients is tax efficient management of portfolios. We highlight that ETFs deliver better capital gains tax outcomes than unlisted managed funds for two reasons. The first is their lower turnover. The second is that the trading on the ASX allows for a more efficient allocation of capital gains when other investors redeem from the ETF. This is all here www.marketvectors.com.au/etfeducation
Market Vectors ETFs is one of the largest ETF providers in the world. We are fully committed to helping Australian investors to better understand the benefits of using ETFs.
Wishing you a relaxing, yet productive festive season

The recently listed VanEck Vectors MSCI International Sustainable Equity ETF (ESGI) sets a high standard on environmental, social, and governance (ESG) ratings. The ETF ranks #1 on ESG ratings from MSCI compared to its ASX ETF international sustainable equities peer group.
Emerging Markets (EM) are having their ‘goldilocks’ moment. Growth is accelerating without economies overheating and capital inflows are rising. After five years of lacklustre performance, 2017 was a year of strong returns for EM and all signs indicate this will likely continue through 2018 as EM securities are attractively priced compared to developed markets. The long-term investment rationale for EM is also compelling as they represent a growing portion of global GDP yet only represent a small fraction of the world’s equities. Earlier this month, the first smart beta EM ETF listed on ASX giving Australian investors the opportunity to access a diversified portfolio of quality EM stocks via a single trade: VanEck Vectors MSCI Multifactor Emerging Markets Equity ETF (ASX: EMKT)
In 2017 resources stocks are performing well, following commodity prices higher. VanEck Vectors Australian Resources ETF (ASX code: MVR) is a well-diversified portfolio which caps individual companies at 8% giving investors one ASX trade access to 25 resource stocks.
MVR’s one year absolute and relative performance has been very strong and in a rising interest rate environment resource equities have historically performed well.
There are two ways our Australian Floating Rate ETF (ASX code: FLOT) is being used in portfolios.
