Our read on each fund

ETF.net Research

BBCAAJPMorgan BetaBuilders Canada ETF

FSZCFirst Trust Switzerland AlphaDEX Fund

In short

BBCA Canada, at a discount. BBCA tracks a Morningstar index of roughly 80 Canadian stocks for 0.19% a year, a fraction of what most single-country funds charge, and it has grown into a multi-billion-dollar fund since its 2018 launch.

FSZ A Switzerland fund that doesn't just mirror the Swiss market. FSZ runs Swiss stocks through First Trust's AlphaDEX growth-and-value rules and lands on about 40 names, so the screen shapes results as much as the country does.

Stated mandate

BBCA The fund seeks to track the Morningstar Canada Target Market Exposure Index before fees and expenses. It uses a passive indexing approach to approximate the index rather than outperform it.

FSZ The fund seeks to track, before fees and expenses, the price and yield of the Nasdaq AlphaDEX® SwitzerlandTM Index. That index selects and weights Swiss securities from the Nasdaq SwitzerlandTM Index using AlphaDEX criteria.

Why people hold it

  • BBCA Costs 0.19% a year, against a 0.50% median for developed single-country funds. The older Canada name in this group, EWC, charges 0.50%.
  • Plain passive plumbing: it aims to approximate the Morningstar Canada Target Market Exposure Index before fees rather than beat it. No stock-picking surprises.jpmorgan.com
  • Running since 2018, now a multi-billion-dollar fund that pays quarterly, and one of the stronger implementations in its single-country peer group.
  • FSZ AlphaDEX selects and weights Swiss stocks on growth and value rules, ending at about 40 names rather than a cap-weighted copy of the market.ftportfolios.com
  • Live since 2012, so the screen has a long public record across real market cycles instead of a backtest.
  • Plain mandate, no moving parts: one country, one published index, quarterly distributions, standard 1940 Act fund wrapper.

Worth knowing

  • BBCA One country, about 80 stocks. The sector mix is whatever Canada's market hands you, set by the index rather than by a diversification plan.
  • Moderately traded, not one of the busiest names on the tape, so spreads can widen on large or off-hours orders.
  • Indexing means no manager leaning away from a soft patch in Canadian equities. You get the index, minus the 0.19% fee.
  • FSZ At 0.80% a year, this sits at the expensive end of single-country developed funds; cohort peers such as FLKR and FLAU charge a small fraction of that.
  • A small asset base and thin trading mean spreads can be wide, so order size and timing matter more here than in a mainstream country fund.
  • About 40 screened names can drift a long way from the broad Swiss market, in either direction.
