CHPS
Canada’s First Global Semiconductor ETF
Semiconductors are one of the single most important components in the development of emerging technology. Horizons Global Semiconductor Index ETF (CHPS) provide exposure to the performance of global, publicly listed companies engaged in the production and development of semiconductors and semiconductor equipment.
Key Features
• Canada’s First Semiconductor ETF: Direct exposure to the key global hardware sector – semiconductors. Essential for almost all leading technology development.

Currently, CHPS seeks to replicate the performance of the Solactive Capped Global Semiconductor Index, net of expenses. CHPS seeks to hedge the U.S. dollar value of its portfolio to the Canadian dollar at all times.
