A+ magazine - Active or passive ETFs?
In its April 2013 edition, the A+ magazine published an article (in French only) entitled "FNB actif ou passif?" on page 26. This article on ETFs by Ian Gascon, president of Idema Investments, summarizes the main factors to consider when analysing an ETF's methodology (active or passive). It is suggested not to base an investment decision solely on past returns but rather to understand the fundamental reasons that can justify the selection of any given ETF.
