An ETF is a fund that trades like individual stocks on exchanges, similar to securities of publicly held companies--they typically represent a particular market 

What are the benefits of an ETF in a 401(k)?  

  • Transparent  - ETFs hold underlying securities on a completely transparent basis and are fee transparent (no 12b-1 fee structure).
  • Low cost  - ETFs are low-cost tools for creating asset allocation portfolios and can often significantly lower overall costs to participants compared to mutual funds.
  • Tax efficient - ETFs are highly tax efficient due to the in-kind creation and redemption of the individual holdings versus mutual funds that sell their holdings to cash.
  • Very liquid - ETF liquidity is not dictated by its own trading volume, but rather it is based on the liquidity of the underlying shares in the portfolio
