Why Invest in Emerging Markets?

Why Invest in Emerging Markets?

Emerging market equities have shown strength even in the face of “higher for longer” interest rate expectations, and we believe the momentum can continue. The acceleration of global economic growth, coupled with low valuations, presents a window of opportunity for the asset class, which appears well positioned to be an outsized beneficiary of this trend.

Those looking to capitalize on these cyclical tailwinds and diversify their exposure might consider:

Emerging Markets Great Consumer ETF (EMC)

We believe emerging market equities appear overlooked, underpriced, and ripe for outperformance relative to the S&P 500 Index.

Emerging Markets ex-China ETF (EMM)

The top-down factors impacting China’s market over the past few years have some investors looking to manage risk by controlling the size and allocation of their China exposure while still gaining access to a diversified group of fast-growing countries.

India Active ETF (NDIA)

India appears poised to be one of the world's most dynamic emerging market economies, driven by attractive demographics, a market-friendly government, supply chain diversification from China, and a fast-growing middle class.


Investing involves risk, including the possible loss of principal. International investments may involve risk of capital loss from unfavorable fluctuation in currency values, from differences in generally accepted accounting principles, or from economic or political instability in other nations. Emerging markets involve heightened risks related to the same factors as well as increased volatility and lower trading volume. A small number of companies and industries may represent a large portion of the market in a particular country or region, and these companies and industries can be sensitive to adverse social, political, economic or regulatory developments in that country or region.

The Funds are actively managed, which could increase transaction costs (thereby lowering performance) and could increase the amount of taxes you owe by generating short-term gains, which may be taxed at a higher rate. NDIA is non-diversified.

Shares of ETFs are bought and sold at market price (not NAV) and are not individually redeemed from the Funds. Brokerage commissions will reduce returns.

Carefully consider the Funds' investment objectives, risks, and charges and expenses before investing. This and other information can be found in the Funds' full or summary prospectuses, which may be obtained at globalxetfs.com. Please read the prospectus carefully before investing.
