An ETF (Exchange-Traded Fund) is a basket of securities that trades on a stock exchange like a single stock. Canadian all-in-one ETFs like XEQT or VEQT give you global diversification in a single holding with MERs as low as 0.20% — a fraction of the 2%+ charged by traditional bank mutual funds.
Where you hold your ETFs matters as much as which ETFs you choose. Inside a TFSA, all growth is tax-free. Inside an RRSP, growth is tax-deferred. In a non-registered account, you pay capital gains tax on realized growth — making tax-efficient broad market ETFs (rather than high-turnover active funds) the best choice.
