The platform includes ETFs from six leading providers: SPDR ETFs, Guggenheim, PowerShares, ETF Securities, United States Commodity Funds, and Charles Schwab.

The 16 new ETFs include five from Guggenheim, five from SPDR ETFs and six from Charles Schwab. They expand the range of categories available to now include asset allocation ETFs, long-term corporate bonds ETFs, and international asset-income ETFs.
