- CI MSCI Canada Low Risk Weighted ETF (RWC.TO) is an exchange-traded fund that replicates, to the extent possible, the performance of the MSCI Canada Risk Weighted Index net of expenses; the index reweights securities from the MSCI Canada Index, a traditional market capitalization-weighted benchmark of Canadian large- and mid-cap stocks, to emphasize those with lower historical return variance, resulting in a bias toward lower-size and lower-risk stocks. The fund holds the constituent securities of the index, primarily Canadian equities (approximately 97% allocation), supplemented by minor holdings in income trust units, cash equivalents, and other assets; top holdings as of early 2022 included utilities, retail, and banking stocks such as Fortis Inc., Alimentation Couche-Tard Inc., and Hydro One Ltd. Launched in February 2014 by CI Global Asset Management, a subsidiary of CI Financial Corp. headquartered in Toronto, Canada, the ETF targets investors seeking Canadian equity exposure with a primary focus on risk mitigation and quarterly cash distributions, rated low-to-medium risk. In April 2022, CI Global Asset Management completed a merger of the CI MSCI Canada Low Risk Weighted ETF (common units) into the CI WisdomTree Canada Quality Dividend Growth Index ETF as part of a broader rationalization of its ETF lineup to streamline offerings, reduce duplication, and create larger, more efficient funds with enhanced diversification potential. This strategic reorganization followed securityholder approval and was implemented after market close on or about April 8, 2022, resulting in a taxable disposition for non-registered accounts; the merger aimed to simplify the product suite amid CI GAM's growth to over $12.5 billion in ETF assets by early 2021. No subsequent relaunches, name changes, or operational shifts specific to RWC.TO have been reported as of late 2025, reflecting CI GAM's ongoing efforts to modernize its factor-based and low-volatility ETF strategies.
