ZCS - BMO Short Corporate Bond Index ETF

The Canadian ETF industry continues to expand – with estimates up to the end of November of last year suggesting assets under management in ETFs were now just above $565 billion.1 That represents a substantial increase over the prior year ($380 billion) and speaks to the growing popularity of ETFs as an investment tool.

After another 50-basis point rate cut, the market is weighing where the Bank of Canada’s rate path goes from here. While the latest inflation print south of the border may complicate that trajectory. BMO Portfolio Manager Matt Montemurro, Head of Fixed Income and Equity Index ETFs joins Bipan Rai, Managing Director, BMO ETFs Strategist, and your host Erika Toth, Director for BMO ETFs, Eastern Canada, to discuss how investors can play the central bank’s direction on monetary policy.
