- As of Nov 4, 2026, ETFIQ places 29 stock ETFs in the Financials sector, with a median fee of 0.35%.
In plain words
A financials ETF owns banks, insurers, asset managers and payment firms. Interest rates and credit conditions drive much of its result.
ETFIQ places 29 funds in the sector, with a median fee of 0.35%. Some are broad; some follow only banks or only insurers. Real estate is its own sector. A few large banks can make up much of a fund, so read the top ten weight and its date; ETFIQ also shows the gap to the benchmark.
Questions
- Is real estate part of financials?
Not on ETFIQ. Real estate is its own sector, one of the 11.
- How do rates affect a financials fund?
Banks earn on the gap between what they pay and what they charge, so rate changes matter. This is a general fact, not a forecast.
- Where do I compare funds?
The compare tool puts two side by side.
