“Our goal is simple: we want to help Canadians earn more from companies they already believe in,” said John Wilson, co-CEO and Managing Partner at Ninepoint Partners. “With our HighShares ETF suite, we are enabling investors to access ETFs that provide the familiarity of household-name stocks with the added benefit of professional income strategies.”

Each ETF in the suite is built around a single, well-known Canadian company or a diversified mix of market leaders across key sectors such as banking, energy, infrastructure, telecom and global growth. Alongside seeking to provide holders with long-term capital appreciation through exposure to Canadian blue-chip stocks investors already know and trust, the ETFs’ objectives also aim to provide high monthly cash distributions. Each ETF seeks to achieve this by selling call options on the single stock it owns, utilizing a covered call approach with modest leverage and then distributing the collected option premiums to investors.
