Having said that, each portfolio option has unique characteristics that may make it a better fit for certain clients or accounts. For example, clients who would like to keep their investment fees as low as possible often prefer our ETF portfolios. Conversely, clients who prefer active investment management typically choose between Guardian Capital and BCV portfolios.
