100 new ETFs from iShares, Vanguard, VanEck, and more!

After a monster batch of new stocks, we thought we’d switch things up a bit and add a big group of ETFs.

We’re really excited to begin a significant expansion of exchange-traded funds (or ETFs) available on Freetrade. 

We’re adding 100 new ETFs in total today, and that batch includes some specialist funds that we’re adding for Plus members.

Freetrade Plus ETFs

We want your Plus membership to be a no-brainer - offering clear long-term value for money. 

That’s where ETFs come in. Our vision for Plus is to build out a huge universe of investable securities, including as wide a range of ETFs as possible. 

Starting this week, we’re making the first few additions to that Plus ETF universe. We’re also laying out exactly how we plan to select ETFs for Plus (or Free) in future.

Free Universe

All available ETFs provided by: iShares (BlackRock), Vanguard, and Invesco

Plus Universe

All Free ETFs and all other London-listed ETFs

‍

As with our Plus stock universe, we wanted to find a clear-cut way to differentiate between a “core” ETP offering and an enhanced offering that has something for everyone. 

Following this division, 24 ETFs will eventually be moved to Plus.

If you hold one of these ETFs and decide not to become a Plus member, you will be able to continue holding or sell the product, but you will no longer be able to buy more shares.
‍

We’re going to make sure that everyone holding one of these ETFs has plenty of early warning before they are moved to Plus. We are only going to move these ETFs over to Plus once everyone is able to subscribe.
