EWN Profile
The iShares MSCI Netherlands ETF seeks to track the performance of its benchmark index, which is a free float-adjusted, market capitalization-weighted index. This index is specifically designed to measure the performance of the large-, mid-, and small-capitalization segments of the Dutch equity market. By mirroring this index, the ETF provides investors with a broad and representative exposure to the Dutch stock market.
The fund generally invests at least 80% of its assets in the component securities of the index, as well as in other investments that have economic characteristics substantially identical to those of the index components. This strategy ensures that the ETF closely follows the performance of its underlying index, offering investors a precise reflection of the Dutch equity market's dynamics.
The ETF's investment portfolio includes a diverse range of sectors within the Dutch economy, such as technology, financials, consumer goods, and industrials. Prominent Dutch companies in these sectors are featured in the fund, providing exposure to some of the Netherlands' most significant and influential businesses. This diversification across various sectors helps to capture the overall performance of the Dutch market and mitigate individual sector risks.
As a non-diversified fund, the iShares MSCI Netherlands ETF offers concentrated exposure to the Dutch equity market, focusing on companies of varying sizes that are key players in the country's economy. This approach allows investors to gain targeted exposure to the Netherlands' prominent and emerging firms, reflecting the market's performance and growth potential in a focused manner.
