Hello, Seedly community. I'm looking to invest in ETF (global, US, or china). I have acc with Saxo and Vickers. Can I have some advice is narrowing down and choosing the ETFs?

I think the interface in Saxo and Vickers aren't that good for ETFs or is it just me? I can't quite see the expected dividends/returns p.a on the list of filtered ETFs. I can't open multiple tabs to check and compare ETFs of similar sector too.
There are tons of ETFs available under "infrastructure" for example and it's very difficult to compare the difference between the 1 by vanguard, by SPDR, by iShare, tracking FTSE, MSCI, or Morningstar... To decide
Any advice or comments are welcome! 😁

So if your intent is to screen ETFs, Morningstar is a good starting point and has a lot of data.

What helps me is in order:

Figuring out what I'd like to invest in
Finding some suitable instruments via ETF.com/Morningstar
Narrowing down basis: a. Expense Ratio b. Liquidity
Total AUM 30MM USD (Below this it's likely the ETF isn't profitable and may close if it's unable to pickup more AUM although this can be discounted for newer ETFs)
Brokerage cost in terms of FX/commissions

Different providers will follow different indices such as MSCI/FTSE etc and the differences are often in the methodology used. You have the option of reading the prospectus which is usually available on the site and see if you agree with 1 or the other, but if you'd prefer to simply avoid the trouble, picking 1 ETF from the larer fund houses will likely meet your needs
