"The CIBC ETF Portfolios make ETFs more accessible to a broader group of Canadian investors," said David Scandiffio, President and Chief Executive Officer, CIBC Asset Management. "They combine CIBC's low cost index ETFs across different asset classes and exposures in a well-diversified portfolio, all through the convenience of a single investment."
CIBC also announced the termination of Class D of the CIBC ETF Portfolios (formerly CIBC Passive Portfolios). Regulatory changes that became effective June 1, 2022 prohibited the payment of trailing commissions to self-directed brokerages.
