Evolve ETFs is proud to announce that the Evolve Cyber Security Index ETF reached its one-year anniversary. CYBR generated a return for the period ending September 19, 2018 of 41.02%.
Evolve is one of Canada’s fastest growing ETF providers since launching its first suite of ETFs via the Toronto Stock Exchange on September 20, 2017. Evolve provides differentiated investment solutions, including partnerships with leading global asset managers, as well as strategies which encompass themes that intersect in Canadians’ daily lives.
“We are very proud of reaching $300 million in assets in our first year of operation,” said Raj Lala, President & CEO of Evolve ETFs. “Most importantly we have launched innovative ETFs that have added value to investor portfolios. Perhaps one of the best illustrations of this is Canada’s first cyber security ETF (TSX: CYBR and TSX: CYBR.B).”
Canada’s first Cyber Security ETF
CYBR is the first ETF in Canada that invests primarily in equity securities of global companies that are involved in the cyber security industry through hardware and software development. Investment in the cybersecurity space is growing at an unprecedented rate as more people connect to devices.
“CYBR.B has generated very strong performance with a one-year return of over 40%,” added Mr. Lala. “Cybercrime continues to be one of the biggest threats to companies and governments. Many of the companies in this ETF provide the cyber security services for these entities. As the amount of connectivity in the world increases there is an expected increase in demand for cyber security.”
CYBR is an index (or passively managed) ETF that seeks to replicate, to the extent reasonably possible and before fees and expenses, the performance of the Solactive Global Cyber Security Index Canadian Dollar Hedged, or any successor thereto.
