Get Smart about Smart Beta

Since the October 3rd BNN show was partially preempted by Bill Morneau dropping the hammer on mortgage lending, we weren’t able to bring you the educational segment, so here it is this week: http://www.bnn.ca/bermans-call/berman-s-call-part-three-educational-segment~973868

If you would like to learn more about smart beta ETFs, and factor-based investing, (and generally how to be a smarter investor); come out to our 7th cross-Canada speaking tour. We kick off tonight in Oshawa (after the Jays game), and tour Southern Ontario before visiting Ottawa, Alberta, BC and then much of Canada over the next 6 months. Free registration at www.investorsguidetothriving.com – when registering you can also help us raise money to fight childhood cancer by supporting Sick Kids (check out their inspiring new campaign) and Alzheimer’s by supporting Baycrest Health Sciences, making a voluntary donation with your registration. Over the past few years, Berman’s Call roadshows have raised over $175,000 for charity thanks to BNN viewers and our sponsors. We will be matching guest donations, so let’s work together to make positive change!

If you’re more of the stay home and read more type, here are some good resources on the subject:
