High Interest Savings Account ETF (HISA)
Q: Hi,
I was surprised to learn yesterday that a T3 form was provided to me from by bank for holding Purpose High Interest Savings Fund (PSA). It says there is a minuscule return of capital. I thought PSA would only provide interest as reported on a T5.
I went to the PSA website and sure enough, there is a ROC and has been since 2013. Do you know if this is typical of these high interest savings account ETFs and if there is another fund that is similar to PSA without the ROC component?
Thank you.
Michael

5i Research Answer:
We do not have a proper screening methodolgy on all ETFs, because the tax breakdown varies yearly. HISA is one cash ETF that shows no ROC in its 2024 tax allocation. HSAV is a total return fund that actually makes no distributions so taxes are shifted to capital gains.
