J.P. Morgan Asset Management Strengthens Canadian Market Presence with New ETF Launch

TORONTO, July 28, 2025 /CNW/ - J.P. Morgan Asset Management Canada (JPMAM)* today announced the expansion of its actively managed exchange-traded funds (ETFs) with the launch of the JPMorgan Global Select Equity Active ETF (TSX: JGLO). JGLO has closed its initial offering of units and is now trading on the Toronto Stock Exchange (TSX).

"JGLO provides Canadians access to our best ideas for global equity exposure. This is one of our most successful institutional strategies, now available in an ETF wrapper," said Travis Hughes, Head of Canada at J.P. Morgan Asset Management. "Drawing on insights from a team of industry experts, JGLO offers Canadians access to long-term capital appreciation through a global equity portfolio."

Built on a long term approach focused on bottom up stock selection, the ETF works to outperform the MSCI World Index, delivering superior growth and free cash flow yield with similar to lower valuation versus the benchmark, while effectively managing risks across sectors and regions.

"This offering provides another opportunity for Canadians to access a high conviction, best ideas equity strategy that aims to deliver in both value and growth-driven environments," said Jay Rana, Head of Canadian Advisor Business at J.P. Morgan Asset Management. "This continues J.P. Morgan Asset Management's commitment in delivering long-term and sustained value for investors."
