TRANSCRIPT
Using Insider Commitment to Potentially Increase PerformanceThe level of insider commitment of a stock, that is the level of purchase and/or ownership of a company by its officers and directors, could be a powerful confirmation signal on whether to buy one stock over another.
The Horizons Cdn Insider Index ETF (“HII”) is the first ETF in Canada that uses insider commitment data to determine which stocks it will hold. HII seeks to replicate, to the extent possible, the performance of the INK Canadian Insider Index (the “Index”), net of expenses. The Index is designed to provide exposure to the performance of 50 TSX-listed stocks that hold positive metrics of a combination of fundamental valuations, insider commitment and price momentum.
Key Features:• Only ETF in Canada that uses insider confirmation metrics in its stock selection
process• Gives Canadian equity investors diversified access to many stocks not widely
held in Canadian portfolios (mid-cap/small-cap bias)• Buys low and sells high via automatic semi-annual rebalancing to an equal-
weighted portfolio of 50 stocks
Ink Canadian Insider IndexThe Index is a core Canadian equity Index, which is comprised of 50 equity securities that provide, in aggregate, diversified Canadian market exposure. The issuers are selected based on INK Research’s proprietary INK Edge® V.I.P. (Value Insider Price) screening criteria — a three category, equal-weight methodology measuring valuations, insider commitment and price momentum.
