    Frequently asked questions

    Exchange-traded funds (ETFs) are baskets of securities that trade on exchanges, such as individual stocks. Investors and financial professionals typically like ETFs for their relatively low costs, tax efficiency, portfolio transparency, and trading flexibility.

    Passively managed ETFs are designed to track indexes like the S&P 500 Index, while active ETFs give portfolio managers flexibility to pick individual securities based on their investment approach and usually seek to outperform a benchmark. ETFs have varying levels of portfolio transparency, ranging from fully transparent, semi-transparent, and non-transparent. The different levels of transparency depend on how much and frequently the ETFs disclose their portfolio holdings.

    When selecting individual ETFs, investors typically base their decisions on several factors, including expense ratio, investment strategy, liquidity, ETF provider, performance, tracking error¹, and tax efficiency. This type of information can usually be found on an ETF provider’s website.

    ETFs listed on exchanges can be bought and sold through almost any brokerage firm. Some brokers offer commission-free ETF trades, and investors can typically buy as little as one share of an ETF. 

    Both ETFs and mutual funds are pooled investment vehicles that give investors access to entire asset classes and sectors with professional management. However, unlike mutual funds, ETFs generally provide:

    • Higher tax efficiency

    • More portfolio transparency

    • The ability to trade during the day

    • The use of limit and stop-loss orders3

      Investors should be aware of the material differences between mutual funds and ETFs. ETFs generally have lower expenses than actively managed mutual funds due to their different management styles. Most ETFs are passively managed and are structured to track an index, whereas many mutual funds are actively managed and thus have higher management fees. Unlike ETFs, actively managed mutual funds have the ability react to market changes and the potential to outperform a stated benchmark. Since ordinary brokerage commissions apply for each ETF buy and sell transaction, frequent trading activity may increase the cost of ETFs. ETFs can be traded throughout the day, whereas, mutual funds are traded only once a day. While extreme market conditions could result in illiquidity for ETFs. Typically they are still more liquid than most traditional mutual funds because they trade on exchanges. Investors should talk with their financial professional regarding their situation before investing.

A stop order is an order to buy or sell at the market when a definite price is reached, either above (on a buy) or below (on a sell) the price that prevailed when the order was given.

    Diversification does not guarantee a profit or eliminate the risk of loss.

    Since ordinary brokerage commissions apply for each ETF buy and sell transaction, frequent trading activity may increase the cost of ETFs.

    Invesco does not offer tax advice. Please consult your tax adviser for information regarding your own personal tax situation.

    Most ETFs disclose their portfolio holdings daily.

    Beta is a measure of risk representing how a security is expected to respond to general market movements. Smart Beta represents an alternative and selection index-based methodology that seeks to outperform a benchmark or reduce portfolio risk, both in active or passive vehicles. Smart beta funds may underperform cap-weighted benchmarks and increase portfolio risk.

    There are risks involved with investing in ETFs, including possible loss of money. Index-based ETFs are not actively managed. Actively managed ETFs do not necessarily seek to replicate the performance of a specified index. Both index-based and actively managed ETFs are subject to risks similar to stocks, including those related to short selling and margin maintenance. Ordinary brokerage commissions apply. The Fund's return may not match the return of the Index. The Funds are subject to certain other risks. Please see the current prospectus for more information regarding the risk associated with an investment in the Funds.
