CI Morningstar Canada Momentum Index ETF FSSTF

Company Overview

CI Morningstar Canada Momentum Index ETF is an exchange-traded fund managed by CI Global Asset Management, one of Canada’s larger independent investment managers. The ETF is designed to provide exposure to Canadian equities that exhibit momentum characteristics, generally by tracking the performance of a rules-based index developed by Morningstar Indexes. The fund operates within the broader asset management and investment services industry, specifically in the smart beta and factor-investing segment of the ETF market.

The ETF’s primary objective is to deliver returns associated with momentum-driven Canadian stocks while maintaining diversified exposure across sectors represented in the Canadian equity market. Its revenue generation model is tied to management fees collected on assets under management. The fund’s positioning is differentiated by its systematic methodology, which relies on quantitative screening and index construction rather than discretionary stock selection. The ETF forms part of the broader suite of factor-based and index-oriented investment products offered by CI Global Asset Management, which expanded its ETF presence through acquisitions and organic product development over the past decade.
