Q: My daughter has opened her First time Home buyer Savings Account with the intent to wait 1 ½ to 2 years until she will be ready to purchase her first home. Do you have any ETF's you would like to suggest ?
Asked by Gord on December 20, 2023
5i Research Answer:

Two years is a very short time for much equity exposure and we would be very conservative. VBAL is a balanced ETF owning both bonds and stocks, and we would not like to take any more risk than this. Ideally, we would prefer no risk for a short time frame and a defined use of cash. A high interest ETF such as CASH or PSA would be safer still. 

Authors of this answer, directors, partners and/or officers of 5i Research and/or affiliated companies have a financial or other interest in PSA.
