BMO unveils four more ETFs

Toronto-based BMO Asset Management Inc. has launched four exchange-traded funds (ETFs), bringing its total roster of index-linked investments to 63 funds. All four of the new funds will give investors exposure to international markets and are meant to help investors manage risk and enhance yield.
