Sector, regional and thematic exchange-traded funds as CFDs — broad exposure when you have a view on a market but not on a single company.
An ETF CFD lets you back a sector or a region without picking the winner inside it. When you think semiconductors run but cannot choose between three names, or want emerging markets without single-country risk, this is the cleaner instrument.
Technology, energy, financials, healthcare; US, Europe, emerging markets.
Hedge an equity book with a single instrument instead of a dozen.
Fund distributions are adjusted on the ex-date like share dividends.

Technology, energy, financials, healthcare and industrials — the standard sector map of the US market.
US large cap, European equities, Japan and broad emerging-market baskets.
Semiconductors, clean energy, cybersecurity and other themes that cut across sectors.

Typical spread on a Gold account during the main session. Leverage depends on the instrument and on your client classification.
You trade on margin and can go short, and the position is cash-settled in your account. You do not own fund units and you do not receive distributions directly — an equivalent cash adjustment is applied instead.
It is more diversified, which usually means smaller single-name shocks — but it is still a leveraged position on a volatile market. Diversification reduces specific risk, not market risk.
