ATB Investment Management Launches Three ETF-Based Portfolios

ATB Investment Management has launched three Spire Portfolios in Canada, offering diversified, ETF-based mutual funds rather than standalone ETFs. The ATB Spire Conservative Balanced Portfolio emphasizes fixed income, the Spire Balanced Portfolio combines equities and bonds, while the Spire Growth Portfolio favors equities. All three seek long-term capital appreciation and income while managing short-term volatility. The portfolios primarily invest in ETFs to provide core index exposure, complemented by thematic and alternative investments, and may also hold mutual funds or securities directly. The launch expands ATB's managed investment lineup alongside its existing Compass and Monthly Income Portfolios, reflecting growing demand for packaged investment solutions that use ETFs as building blocks while offering different risk profiles.
