Common questions

Is MNZL Shariah-compliant (halal)?

MNZL is screened as follows: FTSE Russell halal index of the US broad market with an additional ethical exclusion overlay. Screening standards differ between index families — verify the methodology against the standard you follow before investing.

What does MNZL cost per year?

The management expense ratio is 0.40% per year — about $40 annually on a $10,000 holding, deducted inside the fund rather than billed to you.

Can Canadians hold MNZL in a TFSA or RRSP?

Yes, in registered accounts at any Canadian broker with US-market access. In an RRSP the Canada–US treaty waives the 15% US withholding tax on distributions; a TFSA, FHSA or RESP gets no treaty relief, so 15% comes off every distribution.
