Hamilton Enhanced Canadian Bank ETF (HCAL.TO)

Qué hace este fondo

The fund strives to achieve 1.25x the performance of its target index by adopting a strategic use of leverage, with a ceiling of 125% of its NAV. The fund utilizes borrowing and derivatives to effectively mirror the equity stakes in six prominent Canadian banks, balancing them equally within its investment portfolio. The criteria for selecting banks into the index focus on financial health, stipulating minimum requirements for market cap and daily trading volumes, prioritizing the banks' stability and the likelihood of strong returns. Additionally, the fund may invest in a range of securities or other investment funds to secure direct or indirect exposure to the index's constituents, keeping total leverage from borrowing cash, derivatives, and short selling under 25% of its NAV. The fund undergoes a semi-annual review to align with the index's results accurately.
