Score Pending — Limited Data
We do not currently have enough commercially displayable fund-specific data to calculate a reliable score. This is not a negative assessment of the ETF.
ETFs on this site are scored by a separate, fund-specific model sourced from official SEC filings (Form N-PORT, N-CEN, Risk/Return Summary) when enough evidence exists -- this is not the same model or scale used for operating-company research pages. How it works →

Fund Overview
ZGB is a Canadian fixed-income index fund managed by BMO Global Asset Management, concentrated in bonds issued by Canadian federal and provincial governments rather than corporate issuers.
Index Strategy
ZGB tracks the FTSE Canada All Government Bond Index, a market-capitalization-weighted index of Canadian federal and provincial government bonds across a range of maturities, excluding corporate bonds. Index membership and weights are set by FTSE Russell, an independent third-party index provider.
Geographic Exposure
All underlying holdings are Canadian-dollar-denominated government bonds; the fund does not hold foreign-currency-denominated or corporate bonds.
Principal Risks
As a fund concentrated in Canadian government bonds, ZGB.TO carries interest-rate risk (bond prices generally fall when interest rates rise) and duration risk from its government-bond holdings, with comparatively lower credit risk than a fund holding corporate bonds; it does not carry equity-market risk.
