Two new ETFs from Invesco

Toronto-based Invesco Canada Ltd. intends to launch two new ETFs later this year. Invesco Canada has filed a preliminary prospectus to launch PowerShares S&P 500 High Dividend Low Volatility Index ETF and PowerShares S&P Global ex-Canada High Dividend Low Volatility Index ETF. Invesco Canada also plans to add two new series of its PowerShares DWA Global Momentum Index ETF, which will allow investors to purchase units of the ETF in a U.S. dollar-denominated version or a Canadian dollar-hedged version.
