The Equitable Asset Management Group (EAMG) is responsible for a lineup of actively managed segregated funds including three balanced funds, a bond fund and a money market fund. Our portfolio lineup is designed for a wide range of investor preferences, offering various risk-return profiles to serve our clients’ investment strategies. To achieve our desired equity exposures, the Active Balanced Portfolios utilize Canadian and U.S. listed exchange traded funds (ETFs).

Exchange traded funds

ETFs are investment vehicles that seek to replicate the performance of underlying indexes. The proliferation of the Canadian and U.S. ETF markets enables our team to achieve targeted positions in specific country, factor, and/or sectors within global equity markets. These products offer a high degree of liquidity at a low cost while reducing single-stock concentration risk.
