Spoiler: ETFs aren’t that deep. So why are so many of us (okay, you) still so intimidated by them when it comes to investing? On this week’s Deep Dive, Bec and Victoria cover the acronym that’s causing a stir in our comments section.

Exchange Traded Funds or ETFs are just one of the ways that many Aussies are investing, and for good reason too. They’re a bundle of shares that give you some healthy exposure to a range of companies, industries and asset classes that you mightn't have otherwise.

In this episode, we’ll cover what ETFs are, how they work, and why they’re such a compelling investment option. Thanks to our episode partners Sharesies, we’ll show you how to get started on their platform, as well as which ETFs have risen in popularity in recent times (and why!).

From percentages to performance, common mistakes and money tips, learn how to make your money work harder for you with ETFs.
