Mutual funds may have been the among the greatest financial inventions of the 20th century, but exchange-traded funds will surely hold that honor for the 21st. ETFs are booming both in number and asset inflows, and it doesn’t seem to be letting up anytime soon.

There are far more good than bad features of ETFs, but a lot of features and funds are misunderstood.

At this webinar, you’ll learn about:

• Why ETFS are a better choice than mutual funds under most circumstances
• How changes over the next few years will make ETFs a better choice than mutual funds under essentially all circumstances
• ETF features that need to be fixed, including the ETF trading mechanism and difficulty in paying advisors in tax efficient way for the client
• Weaknesses of benchmark index ETFs
• The facts about leveraged long and inverse ETFs and other controversial funds
