Q: I need to expand my international exposure and would be holding the ETF in a non-registered account.

What are your top 2 international ETFs (ex-north america?).
What do you think of VIU?

Thanks
(Note I tried sending this in previously but not sure it went through so resubmitting)

5i Research Answer:

We like VIU and it is our top Ex-North American pick. There are few other ex-North American options but for a CAD-hedged option we like VI. If one is fine with some Canadian exposure, VXUS or VEF could work as well.
