INOC harnesses the stock selection power of Inovestor\u2019s StockPointer, which has been one of Canada\u2019s largest stock selection software services for financial advisors during the past two decades.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>INOC uses a six-step investment process that begins with screening the Canadian universe of stocks based on economic profit \u2013 a form of residual wealth that occurs when a company pays back its cost of capital from operating profit, adjusted for tax. Economic profit is one way of determining whether capital invested in a company has generated value for investors.<\/p>\n<p>Once the top 100 securities by economic profit are selected, sectors are weighted and the top 25 securities are selected using their\u00a0StockPointer scores \u2013 a 50\/50 combination of performance and risk metrics.<\/p>\n<p>Pascal LeFrancois, president and CEO of Inovestor, commented: \u201cHaving spent decades perfecting our technique of selecting and ranking equities within our software for advisors and firms, we are excited to be relaying our expertise in investment metrics within an ETF that our clients and the broader public can invest in. Many investors have struggled to determine the true value of various Canadian securities and we believe our investment process helps choose quality stocks at a reasonable price.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>INOC has annual charges\u00a0of 0.50%.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Horizons ETFs\u00a0has launched the\u00a0Horizons Inovestor Canadian Equity Index ETF (INOC CN)\u00a0on the\u00a0Toronto Stock Exchange\u00a0(TSX).
