Q: Good day 5i,
I am trying to shift away a percentage on my portfolio from the broad US market towards specific high-conviction themes and international diversification. What are my best options?

Asked by Marco on February 25, 2026

5i Research Answer:

We do not cover individual international companies, but regardless for good diversification and simplicity we think ETFs are the way to go. VIU is a solid international, non-North American all-cap ETF that we quite like. VEE could be used for more emerging market exposure. There are lots of individual country ETFs but generally we would suggest an all-world approach.
