SEE IF YOUR MUTUAL FUNDS OFFER AN ETF VERSION
- Many mutual funds offer an ETF equivalent
- Converting to the ETF equivalent is usually tax-free
- Fees on ETFs are generally lower
- Capital gains distributions from ETFs are much less frequent
- ETFs don’t have shareholder redemptions, so in challenging markets they aren’t forced to sell securities
- ETFs trade like stocks, offering flexibility
