Exchange traded funds (ETFs) are investment products that aim to replicate the movements of a particular stock index.

Exchange traded commodities (ETCs) work in a similar way, either tracking specific commodities or an index of diversified commodities.

When might you trade on ETPs?

To track a basket of shares or goods with a single transaction
ETPs can have capital gains tax advantages over funds and index trackers*
ETPs are sometimes the only way to access exotic markets

Benefits

Combine what would otherwise be several trades in a single transaction
Continuous pricing means you can trade at any time during market hours
ETFs have the same level of flexibility and transparency as shares

Costs and details

See our ETP costs and details within the spread betting shares list and CFD shares list.
