Mackenzie Global Equity ETF and Mackenzie International
Equity ETF
The Mackenzie Global Equity ETF and Mackenzie International

global markets, considering risk management and a consistent

are managed by the Mackenzie Global Quantitative Equity Team, which
aims to leverage holistic quantitative approaches to generate alpha
and manage risk by combining human insight and data science.
"There are a number of opportunities available in both global
and international markets to enhance portfolio diversification,"
said Prerna Mathews, VP, ETF Product and Strategy, Mackenzie
Investments. "The Mackenzie Global Equity ETF and Mackenzie
International Equity ETF give investors new access to different
markets and economies, led by a knowledgeable team who employ an
innovative and holistic quantitative approach to investing."
Mackenzie Bluewater Next Gen Growth ETF
The Mackenzie Bluewater Next Gen Growth ETF is managed by the
Mackenzie Bluewater Team (the "Bluewater Team") and consists of a
portfolio of established, global and profitable companies that the
Bluewater Team has identified as having the potential to be drivers
of innovation. Stocks are selected based on an expectation that the
companies will leverage product innovation, service innovation or
business model innovation to create new and unique revenue streams,
leading to the potential for long-term growth.
"With the new Mackenzie Bluewater Next Gen Growth ETF, we offer
investors a chance to be involved in the innovative investment
space while seeking to minimize risk. Their investments can be led
by secular trends, but also have the dependability of anticipated
long-term growth," explained Ms. Mathews.
Mackenzie Core Resources ETF
Managed by the Mackenzie Resource Team (the "Resource Team"),
the Mackenzie Core Resources ETF offers investors an opportunity to
leverage global demand for natural resources and use the ETF as a
base for a diversified portfolio. Backed by a long tenure and
consistent track record, the Resource Team leverages current
economic data to determine the positioning of investments within
the resource space, and aims to reduce volatility and optimize
returns. The Resource Team utilizes an active strategy seeking
success in a space where advisors and investors may have difficulty
managing on their own, making this a distinct offering for
investors.
"This is an attractive option for those who want to explore or
prioritize investing in the resource sector and its various
subsectors, including energy, materials and precious metals, within
their portfolios. The active management of the ETF reduces timing
risk and offers the potential for lower volatility, which can be
attractive to investors, particularly in a more complex area to
navigate" concluded Ms. Mathews.
The initial offerings of the ETFs have closed, and they
will begin trading today on the Toronto Stock Exchange under their
respective ticker symbols.
