When it comes to investing in index funds, also referred to as mutual fund investments, you can choose to work with a financial advisor or engage in self-directed investing. No matter which option you decide to go with, there are certain index funds that stick out above the rest. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

How Index Funds Work<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Index funds track different markets in order to try to replicate their performance. When it comes to index funds, Canadian investors can get actively managed funds as well as passively managed funds. They can also be made of different stocks, including small-cap Canadian stocks. Some even reflect future values instead of current values. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Unlike some other types of investments, your initial investment isn\u2019t guaranteed. It\u2019ll constantly change based on the unit value of the index. Often, the fund manager will manage this to avoid reduced returns. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Wealthsimple Index Funds <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Because Wealthsimple is an online brokerage, there are a variety of investments that you can invest in. In terms of Index Funds, Wealthsimple offers ETFs or index mutual funds, which are also referred to as exchange-traded funds. With Wealthsimple, you can find a wide range of ETFs to invest in as you choose. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Low-Cost Index Funds in Canada<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Another thing that investors need to consider is the cost of the index fund. This will determine how much is invested into the index and will impact your total return. The lower the cost, the more funds that you can invest. Let\u2019s take a look at some of the best low-cost index funds in Canada. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

iShare S&P\/TSX 60 ETF (XIU)<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

One neat fact about the iShares S&P\/TSX 60 ETF is that it was the world’s first ETF. It was created in 1990. It\u2019s also one of the largest and most liquid ETFs in Canada. Specifically, this ETF gives you exposure to large, established companies in Canada by tracking the S&P\/TSX 60 index, net of expenses. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

For investors, it\u2019s a passively managed index that uses cost-effective management techniques. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Vanguard Index Funds<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

When it comes to investing in Canada, Vanguard and iShares dominate the best index fund market. As you can see, we\u2019ve already gone over some of their best index fund options. Here are some others. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Vanguard FTSE Canada ETF (VCE)<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Another passively managed fund from Vanguard is the FTSE Canada ETF. It tracks the performance of a broad Canadian equity index. This index measures the investment return on the Canadian market. However, it only measures publicly traded securities. It\u2019s also known for primarily investing in the largest Canadian stocks. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Vanguard Growth ETF Portfolio (VGRO)<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Another affordable ETF from Vanguard is their Growth ETF Portfolio. Like many of the other index funds that we\u2019ve discussed, it seeks to provide long-term capital growth. It does this by investing in both equity and fixed-income securities. While this index can be rebalanced, it aims to maintain a 80% equity and 20% fixed-income allocation. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Price<\/td>$47.26<\/td><\/tr>

Vanguard Balanced ETF Portfolio (VBAL)<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

This is another Vanguard index fund that is designed for long-term growth. It\u2019s also designed for a moderate level of income, which it achieves by investing in both equity and fixed-income securities. The asset allocation for this portfolio is normally 60% equity and 40% fixed-income securities; however, this can change. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Price<\/td>$39.64<\/td><\/tr>

Vanguard Conservative ETF Portfolio (VCNS)<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

While this is another Vanguard portfolio that invests in equity and fixed-income securities, it is designed to provide income as well as long-term growth. As a result, the ideal asset allocation is 40% equity and 60% fixed income. The advisor can rebalance the portfolio as needed. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Price<\/td>$33.02<\/td><\/tr>

Vanguard Conservative Income ETF Portfolio (VCIP)<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The Vanguard Conservative Income ETF is another ETF that focuses on both long-term growth and income. It does this by investing in equity and fixed-income securities. Like a few of the others we\u2019ve already mentioned, this is an actively managed portfolio. The sub-advisor who manages this portfolio aims to maintain a strategic portfolio balance of 20% in equity and 80% in fixed-income securities. However, this balance may need to be adjusted at the sub-manager’s discretion. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Questrade Index Funds<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Because Questrade is just a brokerage, you have a ton of options to choose from. This includes the different index fund options that we\u2019ve already mentioned. The only difference with using Questrade is the fees it charges. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

TSX Index Funds<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

When it comes to index funds, there\u2019s a wide variety to choose from. There are more than you may think available on the Toronto Stock Exchange. Having so many options to choose from can make it very difficult to choose the best option or options for you. To help you with this, we compiled a list of the best TSX index funds. It\u2019s important to keep in mind, though, that there are so many that could make this list, but we had to narrow it down. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

iShares MSCI Minimum Volatility Canada ETF (XMV<\/a>)<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

This index fund works differently from many of the others that we\u2019ve already discussed. It tracks the net expenses of the MSCI Canadian Minimum Volatility Index. The reason investors use this portfolio is that it can reduce losses during declining markets while still generating gains during rising markets. As a result, it may not deliver long-term growth, but it can help balance your portfolio and reduce your overall losses. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Global Aggregate Bond Index (VGAB)<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

One thing to note about this index is that it\u2019s Canadian-hedged. It seeks to replicate a broad global bond index. Like many of the other indexes we discussed, it seeks to be passively managed. The sub-advisor aligns its investments with the index it seeks to track. It also uses derivative instruments to seek to hedge foreign currency exposure. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

iShares Core MSCI All Country World ex Canada Index ETF (XAW)<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

This is another index fund that seeks to track long-term growth. However, it\u2019s also a great way to add some global diversification to your portfolio. Many investors choose this because it\u2019s an easy way to invest in the US, international, and even emerging markets. It\u2019s also low-cost, so it doesn\u2019t require a lot of funds to begin your investment journey. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

FTSE Emerging Markets All Cap Index ETF (VEE)<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The point of this index fund is to track the performance of a broad emerging markets index. It currently seeks to track the FTSE Emerging Markets All Cap China A inclusion index. Some neat features of this index are that it primarily invests in the US-domiciled Vanguard FTSE Emerging Markets ETF and uses a passive management strategy. This fund also has low expenses, which helps minimize any tracking errors. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

TD International Index Fund \u2013 e (TDB911)<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

This index fund is purchased through TD Bank in Canada. It\u2019s identified as having a medium risk and tracks an international equity market index. Specifically, one that measures returns for both mid- and large-cap issuers in the Far East, Asia, and Europe. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This option is a great choice for those with an active investment style who want low MERs. It\u2019s also a great choice for those looking for an index that provides exposure to overseas companies, especially large ones included in the MSCI EAFE Index. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

While the VTSAX is a US index fund, there is a Canadian equivalent. This is a fund we\u2019ve already discussed: the Vanguard S&P 500 Index ETF (VFV). This way, they can invest in the US fund without having to invest in the US market. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Big 3 Index Funds<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

When it comes to index funds, 3 companies control them. These are known as the big three: Vanguard, Big Rock, and State Street. Here\u2019s some information about them. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Vanguard<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Vanguard<\/a> is considered to be one of the world\u2019s largest asset managers. They have over 50 million clients, 17 global offices and $8.6 Trillion in Assets Under Management. Unlike some other asset managers, Vanguard is independent from their external owners. This means they focus on their clients and keep costs low. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Just like with other asset management firms, their investment costs include commissions, management fees and expenses. They\u2019re also clear that their investments aren\u2019t guaranteed, and all investments come with a risk. That said, there is always someone there to help you. This is because their goal is to provide their clients and investors with long-term success. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Black Rock<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

BlackRock<\/a> Asset Management Canada promotes itself not just as an investment manager for the wealthy, but for everyone. They\u2019re also considered one of the world\u2019s leading providers of investment, advisory, and risk management solutions. Currently, they\u2019ve been serving Canadian investors for over 30 years and have over 180 pension plans using their services. That\u2019s over $18 M in retirement savings. They also manage over $335 B for Canadians. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Essentially, BlackRock manages client money and provides investment solutions for both professional and long-term investors. Their goal is to provide their investors with long-term wealth so they can reach their financial goals. You may not know this, but iShares ETFs are BlackRock. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

State Street<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

State Street<\/a> is another one of the big 3 asset managers. They\u2019re considered a global leader in financing, investment management, markets, and investment servicing. They actually handle 11.5% of the world’s finances every day. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In terms of experience, State Street has over 232 years. They\u2019re also the first back-to-front investment platform, the 4th-largest asset manager in the world, do business across over 100 markets, and have over 53,000 employees worldwide. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

S&P 500 Index Funds in Canada<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

When it comes to index funds that track the S&P 500, there\u2019s more than you may think. Here\u2019s a list of a few of them, including the ones we\u2019ve already discussed. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

S&P 500 Index Funds in Canada<\/td>Management Expense Ratio<\/td>Price<\/td><\/tr>
iShares Core S&P 500 Index ETF CAD-Hedged (XSP)<\/td>0.09%<\/td>$76.32<\/td><\/tr>

TD S&P 500 Index ETF (TPU-T)<\/td>0.07%<\/td>$59.96<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Index Funds and Income Taxes<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

If you own Canadian mutual funds, you may be wondering how you pay taxes on these amounts. Well, income taxes payable are based on the income you receive from the mutual fund, not on the fund’s value. What these are depends on the type of income you receive, but they can be capital gains, capital gains dividends, dividends, foreign income, interest, return of capital or other income. You will receive a slip too; you can claim these amounts on your taxes. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Protecting The Funds You Invest<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

While you can\u2019t guarantee you aren\u2019t going to lose your money in the event of a bank failure, you can protect your funds. In Canada, this is the CDIC, which is not only a government deposit insurer but, since there\u2019s no other government deposit insurer, the only deposit insurer. It will protect up to $100,000 in your account. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Best New Canadian Index Funds Launched in 2026<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

In Canada, a few new index funds have been launched. Here\u2019s a look at them and how they work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

NBI Canadian Equity Index Fund (TSX: NBC): <\/strong>This fund has a price around $10.25, an MER 0f 0.05% and administration fees of 0.00%. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

NBI Canadian Bond Index Fund (TSX: NBBX): <\/strong>This fund has a price around $10.09, an MER 0f 0.03% and administration fees of 0.00%. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

NBI U.S. Equity Index Fund (TSX: NBUX): <\/strong>This fund has a price around $10.22, an MER 0f 0.05% and administration fees of 0.00%. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Have Index Fund MERs Decreased in 2026?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Yes, in fact, many MERs have decreased in 2026 due to industry competition, the economy and investor capital being transferred to passive funds. In fact, many of these MERs are trending towards historic lows. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Are Index Funds Still Beating Active Funds in 2026?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Whether you buy index funds or actively managed mutual funds depends on your investment needs. That said, index investing is considered to be better for the vast majority. In fact, over 93% of Canadian active equity funds underperform their benchmarks over the long-term. . <\/p>\n\n\n\n

How FHSA-Eligible Index Funds Compare in 2026<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Whether you\u2019re looking to build your investment portfolio with major Canadian banks or self-directed brokerages, there are things you need to consider, like:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  • market volatility<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • socially responsible investing<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • instant diversification\u00a0<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • personal risk tolerance<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • investing in non-registered accounts and registered accounts<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • broad diversification<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Investment types<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Different asset classes<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

    When it comes to ETFs, you need to consider:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      \n
    • What the top Canadian ETFs are<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • The best performing ETFs<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • Asset allocation ETFs<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • Dividend stocks<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • ETF fees<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • Real Estate Investment Trusts<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • All-in-one ETFs<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

      When it comes to FHSA-eligible index funds, there are several factors to consider. However, for young investors, asset allocation ETFs are the most recommended. This should also be only part of your portfolio, not your entire portfolio. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Best Low-Cost Index Funds for New Investors in 2026<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

      Whether you\u2019re investing with an online broker or a major bank like the Toronto Dominion Bank, you need to consider all of the factors, including:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        \n
      • The cost of the Canadian dollar<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      • How the ETFs trade<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      • Your monthly income<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      • How to get more diversification<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      • What a good price is for an ETF<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

        Keeping these things in mind, there are some of the best index funds for new investors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

          \n
        • iShares Core Equity ETF Portfolio (XEQT)<\/li>\n\n\n\n
        • Vanguard FTSE All-Cap All-In-One (VEQT)<\/li>\n\n\n\n
        • iShares Core Growth ETF Portfolio (XGRO)<\/li>\n\n\n\n
        • Vanguard Growth ETF Portfolio (VGRO)<\/li>\n\n\n\n
        • iShares Core Balanced ETF Portfolio (XBAL)<\/li>\n\n\n\n
        • Vanguard Balanced ETF Portfolio (VBAL)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

          Index Fund Performance Year Over Year in Canada<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

          Over the last year, Canadian equity index funds have delivered returns of 32% to 38%. This is because the Canadian market is dominated by a few core benchmarks, including:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

            \n
          • S&P\/TSX Index<\/li>\n\n\n\n
          • S7P\/TSX Capped Composite Index<\/li>\n\n\n\n
          • S&P 500 Index (CAD hedged and unhedged)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

            Should You Switch Banks for Cheaper Index Funds?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

            Whether you\u2019re looking to start investing or just looking for a more attractive option, switching from a bank to a discount brokerage isn\u2019t a bad idea. This is because big banks typically charge high APRs, and discount brokerages have much lower fees. This can actually increase your returns. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

            Are Currency-Hedged Index Funds Worth It in 2026?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

            If you\u2019re a long-term equity investor, then currency-hedged index funds might not be the best option for you. This is because they only protect against short-term currency volatility, which can lead to issues such as currency drag, loss of diversification, and long-term unpredictability. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

            Best Index Funds for Dollar-Cost Averaging Right Now<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

            When it comes to dollar-cost averaging, some index funds are considered better than others. Some of these are:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

            Vanguard All-Equity ETF Portfolio (XEQT\/VEQT), if you\u2019re going to invest in the security. No matter what you decide, though, you can always move your investments around or get a second opinion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

              \n
            • Vanguard S&P 500 Index ETF (VFV)<\/li>\n\n\n\n
            • iShared Core S&P US Total Market Index ETF (XUU)<\/li>\n\n\n\n
            • Vanguard FTSE Canada All Cap Index ETF (VCN)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
