Press Release

Charles Schwab announced that Schwab ETF OneSource™, one of the largest commission-free ETF programs in the industry, is adding twelve new ETFs to its lineup effective today. With these additions, investors and advisors can access 254 ETFs covering 69 Morningstar Categories with $0 online commissions, no enrollment requirements and no early redemption fees – key differentiators for investors comparing Schwab ETF OneSource to other commission-free ETF offerings.

Schwab ETF OneSource offers commission-free ETFs from 16 leading providers – ALPS, Deutsche Asset Management, Direxion, ETF Securities, Global X Funds, Guggenheim Investments, IndexIQ, John Hancock Investments, J.P. Morgan Asset Management, OppenheimerFunds, PIMCO, PowerShares, State Street Global Advisors SPDR® ETFs, USCF, WisdomTree and Charles Schwab Investment Management.

Today, seven of these providers are adding new funds to Schwab’s commission-free online ETF program. Notably, PIMCO is doubling the amount of ETFs they offer with the addition of three multi-factor products.

“As we approach the five-year anniversary of ETF OneSource, we’re incredibly proud of the growth this program has achieved and that it continues to capture investor interest,” said Heather Fischer, vice president of ETF & mutual fund platforms and client solutions strategy at Charles Schwab. “According to our research, trading ETFs without commissions or other fees continues to grow in importance for investors, so we’re thrilled to continuously expand our selection of ETFs. The fact that ETF providers continue to see value in the program is demonstrated by the ETFs they’ve continued to add to our program.”
