With so many exchange-traded products listed this year, how do you decide which are worth your time and money? SimonPB writes about the process of deciding whether a new ETP is worth adding to a portfolio.
Founder and director of financial and investment education website JustOneLap.com, Simon Brown.
We’ve seen a bunch of new exchange-traded products listed over the past year and we now have 85 exchange-traded funds and about as many exchange-traded notes on the JSE. In this issue, what I want to touch on is the process of how to decide whether that new shiny ETP is worth adding to a portfolio.
The first question is whether it is a carbon copy of an existing ETP which you own? If it is, then it’s worth checking some details such as the total expense ratio and whether the ETP is maybe a total return product. A cheaper TER is always attractive and buying the newer and cheaper one is a simple decision – do it.Get 14 days free to read all our investigative and in-depth journalism.
