Global Equity ETFs
Global equity ETFs provide exposure to stock markets worldwide, including North America, Europe, Asia and emerging markets in a single product.
Why invest
Maximum diversification in a single purchase. Ideal for investors wanting complete exposure without managing multiple regional ETFs.
How to choose
Check geographic weighting (often 60%+ in US), MER fees, and whether the ETF includes emerging markets or only developed markets.
Are VEQT and XEQT global equity ETFs?
VEQT and XEQT are 100% global equity ETFs including Canada, US, international and emerging markets. They offer the most complete global diversification in a single purchase. To exclude Canada, use VXC or XAW.
VXC vs XAW: what is the difference for global equities ex-Canada?
VXC (Vanguard) and XAW (iShares) both offer global exposure excluding Canada. Differences are minor: MER fees, regional weightings and index methodology. Both are excellent complements to a Canadian ETF.
